Mapping Your Way Through Jammin’ on Janesville

Deborah Skurulsky thought she’d like to see more kids’ stuff at Jammin’ on Janesville, the Muskego Chamber of Commerce event held on the first Friday of each month this summer.  So the Muskego attorney suggested a bounce house. 

Now, kids and adults can test their bounce-pounce on Friday, July 1, at a “big, inflatable bounce house with a double-lane slide and basketball hoop,” in front of Jerome Drugs, Skurulsky said.  The activity be will co-sponsored by the Kiwanis of Muskego, Muskego Legal, Curves, and The Joy of Connecting, a women’s networking group. 

Jammin’ activities and locations have grown so quickly since the first event in June that the Chamber will provide maps of participants and show where to find music, activities, and food and beverages, said Denise Konkol, event coordinator for the Chamber.  Shuttle information will also be shown on the maps, Konkol said. 

Visitors can pick maps up at any shuttle stop on Friday, July 1, from 5 to 9 p.m. Stops include Piggly Wiggly on Racine Avenue, Bethel Lutheran Church 4 blocks east of Racine Avenue, Pioneer Drive, Lannon Drive at the old BP gas station site, Pick n’ Save on the east side of lot, the Chamber of Commerce/O’Reilly Auto Parts on Parkland, the Muskego Library south lot, Kohl’s Department Store on Moreland Road, and Lincoln Point Shopping Center just west of College Avenue. 

Groups joining the event for the first time this Friday include the Muskego VFW, the Kiwanis of Muskego, the Muskego Woman’s Club, and the Muskego Food Pantry, which will be accepting donations in front of Pick ‘n Save as summer food supplies dwindle.

Jammin’ on Janesville is an awareness and loyalty marketing campaign held across the summer of 2011 to inform residents and visitors that Muskego businesses will remain open during massive road construction on Janesville Road from 2012 to 2013.
