With the Palmer Park wading pool opening this Saturday and Rockport pool opening next, the City of Janesville has a dire need for lifeguards.

Recreation Programmer Elaina Noffsinger says you can apply online at janevillewi.gov.

Noffsinger says the Recreation Division is excited to debut its new Rubber Ducky Wednesday program at the Palmer Wading Pool. Every Wednesday, following the 3:00 p.m. swim break, staff will release dozens of rubber ducks into the pool. Children who locate special rubber ducks with stars on their underside will win a special prize.

Noffsinger says the schedule for both facilities is available on the City of Janesville’s website.
