The City of Jasper and the Tri-County YMCA will hold a groundbreaking ceremony next month for a new Regional Wellness Center. The event is set for Friday, April 17 at 1 p.m. at the future site on West 15th Street. Community members and local leaders are invited to attend. The planned 70,000-square-foot facility will include fitness areas, gymnasiums, an indoor track, and spaces for group exercise and community programs. City officials say the center is designed to improve quality of life, support workforce growth, and expand access to youth and wellness services across the region. The project is being funded through a mix of local, state, and private sources, with construction costs estimated at around $30 million.
