JER Chilton YMCA at Rockwall

What an unforgettable day on the water! ⛵💙

Last week, our Angel Campers had an amazing time sailing aboard the Seawolf, a beautiful sailing catamaran on the harbor. From the fresh breeze to the smiles and laughter shared along the way, it was a day filled with adventure, confidence, and memories that will last a lifetime!

A very special thank you to the Sail the Seawolf captain and crew for welcoming our campers aboard, sharing your knowledge of sailing, and making this experience so much fun.

Special moments like these are only possible because of the incredible support of our community. Thank you to H-E-B Rockwall, Atmos Energy, HomeBank Texas, Dodie's Rockwall, and Group 1 Ford of Rockwall for helping create meaningful experiences for our Angel Campers. Your generosity makes a lasting difference in the lives of the children and families we serve.

America's most trusted swim instructor, the YMCA helps kids (and adults) of all ages, abilities and backgrounds develop skills they need to become strong, confident swimmers. In 2025, we hired 291 new lifeguards and 125 new swim instructors. Sign up your child for a swim lesson by first scheduling a FREE swim assessment: https://bit.ly/4vdEryj

We wish you a happy and safe 4th of July! While you're enjoying your time outdoors this weekend, we want to remind you about two water safety tips that can help keep you and your child safe near the pool or lake:

1️⃣ Put your phone away when you're near the water
2️⃣Always assign a Water Watcher who is undistracted by phones, conversations, reading, or alcohol while watching the kids

Eighty-eight percent of child drownings occur with at least one adult present. Before getting started with today's festivities, please read vital water safety tips from our Associate Vice President of Aquatics, Jen Pewitt: https://bit.ly/44DtmLk
