At each home game you’ll have a chance to be picked to be the lucky fan who sounds the air raid siren in the arena! You’ll also have a chance to win big with our new and improved Game of Chance.
The Echo Food Drive is back! Last year, we were able to raise over 2,000 pounds of food for local shelters and food pantries. This year, we are looking to break that record. Donating is easy. All you have to do is bring a few canned foods to the game, and there will be a donation station in the lobby before the game. Echo is asking for primarily canned soups to be donated, but all non-perishable food items are welcome.
Skate with the Jets is one of the best games to watch some hockey and then learn how to skate afterwards with a player! This fun tradition allows players and fans to connect not just after the game, but on the ice. We encourage you to bring your own skates, but if you don’t have any, no problem! The Woodman’s Sports and Convention center has many ice skates available for use after the game.
October is breast cancer awareness month. Pink In the Rink is another great tradition held by the Jets. The Jets have been making the Woodman’s Center pink for the second year now for breast cancer awareness. The first 250 fans in the building do get a free pink Jets t-shirt to wear during the game. All funds raised will be donated to Mercyhealth.
Presented by Michelob Ultra, Dollar Beer Night is back at Mercyhealth Arena! Get your $1 Michelob Ultra Beer Cans, while supplies last. Let’s get loud, get rowdy, and cheer on the Jets as they take on the Minnesota Wilderness for the first time this season!
We are supporting veterans this October with a brand new game night, Take A Vet Fishing Night! Take A Vet Fishing This game will have fun on-ice antics, a chance to donate to an important cause, and great hockey.

80’s Glow Night is another new promo night for the Jets, sponsored by the Children’s Museum of Rock County! Dress up in your favorite neon 80’s colors and get ready to bust a move to Micheal Jackson, Queen, The Police, and many more. Along with totally tubular clothes, we will also be hosting some wicked on-ice games.
This year, the Jet’s Halloween Bash is going to be bigger and better than ever! The Janesville Jets, Woodman’s Sports & Convention Center, and Forward Janesville are coming together to throw the ultimate Halloween Bash. This brand new three part event will take place at the Woodman’s Center on Oct. 31st from 4-9pm!
