Rock Hill Area YMCA To Build New Facility in Baxter Village
June 13, 2002

The YMCA is coming to Baxter Town Center. The Rock Hill Area YMCA plans to purchase 35 acres in Baxter from Clear Springs Development Company, the developers of Baxter. "We are very excited about our agreement with Clear Springs Development. I think that it is a great fit for both of us," said Frank 'Moe' Bell, CEO of the Rock Hill Area YMCA.

The YMCA plans to build a full-facility Y in Baxter Town Center. According to Bell, "The ultimate plan includes a fitness center, group fitness/aerobics area, child care, indoor pool, outdoor play pool, multi-purpose ball fields and trails."

During construction of the 60,000 square foot facility, they will occupy up to 4,000 square feet in Clear Springs Development Company's first building in Baxter Town Center. Clear Springs Development Company is expected to break ground on the building, known as the "Springmaid" building late this summer. "Within one year, we hope to have a presence in Baxter Village to begin serving the community," explains Christle Ross, Branch Director of the Gold Hill Branch YMCA.

The YMCA began seeking sites to build a much larger facility to meet the needs of the growing area. The YMCA at Baxter Town Center will serve all areas of Fort Mill/Tega Cay. Ross said, "At this point, we also plan to keep the Gold Hill Branch YMCA at 1785 Gold Hill Road in operation."

"We're very excited to have the YMCA's presence in Baxter," says Don Killoren, CEO of Clear Springs Development Company. "Their orientation and programs are a great fit with our overall vision for Baxter."

The Rock Hill Area YMCA has been serving the area for 89 years. The first branch opened in Rock Hill in 1913. Since then, the Rock Hill Area YMCA has grown to include 6 branches in Rock Hill, Chester, Clover, York and Fort Mill. The Gold Hill Branch in Fort Mill opened in 1999.

Baxter Village is a mixed-use neighborhood in Fort Mill. The 1,033-acre development includes approximately 1,500 homesites, as well as an elementary school, public library, and urgent care center. Baxter also includes more than 500 acres of open space and will include retail and commercial development. For more information on Baxter Village, call (803) 802-TOWN or toll free (877) 570-HOME. The Baxter Information Center is located at the neighborhood's main entrance off Highway 160 and Interstate 77 at Exit 85. Visit Baxter on the web at www.villageofbaxter.com
