South Beloit is offering both Illinois and Wisconsin residents a new nature center where the Rock and Turtle Rivers converge.

Summer may not officially begin until June 21, but the weather is getting warm and pool time is here! Before you let the kids loose for all the water fun, remember that drowning really is silent. Here's some very important information on how to keep your kids safe around water this summer.

Whew! The heat and humidity of summer is here. There's nothing I like better than being able to cool off in a pool. How about cooling off in this pool?

Has waterfalls, water slides, a hot tub to fit over 20 people, a swim up bar and an outdoor kitchen. WOW! Now that's a pool! Click
