YMCA Aquatics Center Groundbreaking - April 10, 2025

Blue skies were the backdrop for the groundbreaking ceremony at the New River YMCA on April 10, 2025, marking the beginning of construction for new swimming & aquatic facilities. The YMCA on Gum Branch Road has been open to the public since 2019, and promotes youth development, supporting wellness, and aiding neighbors in need. The addition of swimming facilities has become a reality through the hard work of community partners, and with funding provided by the City of Jacksonville, Onslow County, Onslow County Schools and others.
