The Janesville Area Convention and Visitors Bureau may be ending the year on a high note, thanks in part to a state grant.

Bureau Executive Director Christine Rebout says the $19,000 State Department of Tourism grant was for "Sweet Treats" promotion in the Janesville area in October, November, and December.

Rebout says the promotion reached its goal of increasing meetings and conventions, as well as, motor coach business, by 15% compared to last year at the same time.
