The YMCA of Metropolitan Fort Worth is inviting you to celebrate the past, present, and future of the Eastside YMCA.

On Saturday, Nov. 18 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., the Y will present the new Eastside YMCA Community Impact Center at 1500 Sandy Ln. Check out a timeline of the history of the center, meet YMA representatives and mascots, and see renderings of the future project.

The facility has been closed for renovations since 2020, but thanks to federal funding from the American Rescue Plan Act, the $16 million, three-part transformation is underway. The project was partially funded by Community Project Funding in March.

Phase 1 is set to be completed in the fall of 2024 with other expansions planned for the future.

Updates include:

  • Phase 1 | Renovation of building and outdoor spaces including the pool and the creation of transition spaces for learning, wellness, and fitness.
  • Phase 2 | A full-sized gymnasium, outdoor sports field, and court
  • Phase 3 | Childcare center to provide a safe and nurturing environment
