On October 18, 2025 the J.E.R. Chilton YMCA at Rockwall celebrated 50 years as a branch. The event consisted of speeches about the past, present, and future of the branch. The event also served as a kick-off of the capital campaign. Executive Director, Harold Young, displayed the check presentation for HomeBank Texas' $500,000 gift. Also, called on the Rockwall Y community to come together to make the capital campaign possible. It was a great night of community and impact.
In support of our capital campaign, HomeBank Texas gave a transformational $500,000 gift to the J.E.R. Chilton YMCA at Rockwall. This extraordinary investment supports our $5.2 million campaign to expand and improve our facilities, ensuring we meet the growing needs of the Rockwall community for generations to come.
In recognition of this transformational gift, HomeBank Texas will receive naming rights for our newly renovated natatorium, a hub for water safety, swim lessons, and recreational swimming.
We are deeply grateful to Mark Andrews, HomeBank owner and board chairman; Landon Lowry, President and CEO; and Eric Stacy, Chief Lending Officer and Head of Commercial Lending, for their vision and commitment to building a stronger, healthier community.
We have completed renovations to the Child Watch and Spin Room. The Child Watch Room has expanded with a dedicated area for infants, a maximized space for learning activities, and a private restroom. The Spin Room has amazing features with LED lights throughout the room, and risers giving great views from any bike in the studio. We're excited for our members to enjoy these new spaces. See our recent pictures below:
Exciting changes are underway! As we prepare for upcoming renovations, the Child Watch room has been temporarily relocated to the racquetball court. This move is just the beginning—soon, we’ll be expanding the Child Watch space to better serve our members and their families!
