H-E-B donated $500,000 to help build a new YMCA of Central Texas location in Georgetown, marked by a community celebration at Wellspring Church on Aug. 8. The facility would be the first full-service YMCA location in the city, with construction planned to begin later this year.
The history
The YMCA of Central Texas and the city of Georgetown began collaborating to deliver a new YMCA facility in February 2022, according to previous Community Impact reporting.
While the Georgetown Family YMCA has provided after school childcare at Georgetown elementary schools, as well as youth programs and summer day camps at its storefront, the new build will be the city’s first fully-equipped facility. The 53,000-square-foot facility is planned for Williams Drive in Northwest Georgetown, and has an estimated completion date of late 2026.
