Celebrate 4th of July at Jacksonville’s 3rd-Annual City Picnic!
Mayor Paul Becker and the City of Jacksonville invite everyone to come out and celebrate July 4th on the Courthouse grounds from Noon until 3:00pm and enjoy complimentary hot dogs, buns, chips and bottled water. Picnickers may opt to bring their own food and drinks if they so desire. Once again, the Fire Department will be organizing activities for children and adults. The Jacksonville Trolley will be stationed on the grounds, offering picnickers free trolley rides around town. Come celebrate the 4th and join the fun with your Jacksonville friends and neighbors!
Thank you Mayor Becker, City Staff and all our City employees for yet another wonderful Community 4th of July picnic on the lawn of the Old Courthouse. It was a great turnout with a lot of visiting and eating, A special thank you and much deserved appreciation to all our fire fighters for doing such a great job of cooking and serving. You made it look easy and fun and kept the line moving. Thank you all and wishing you a wonderful summer with family and friends. Our founding Pioneer Families would be proud that the grounds are still being used in such a wonderful way.
