Welcome to the YMCA of Greater Omaha


Here at the YMCA of Greater Omaha, we strengthen communities by focusing on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. We provide children and adults alike with a place to exercise, learn and grow and belong. We help children learn healthy habits, new skills and guide them to be strong, respectful adults. Adults find in the Y a supportive community to live a healthy lifestyle. Open to all people regardless of ability to pay, we welcome everyone to foster a stronger connection to their community. Whether you’re looking for something for your kids to do after school, or a way to get more active, you’ve come to the right place.
Come check us out today and find yourself at the Y.

The YMCA is Open!

All YMCA of Greater Omaha branches are officially open. As with any business, reopening will look a little different to that of pre-COVID operations, so please take a minute to familiarize yourself with What To Expect below.

 

What To Expect:

Like most businesses, reopening will look a little different than pre-COVID operations. Specifically, with the safety of everyone in mind, members should expect to see the following guidelines in place when returning to the Y:

  • Facilities will operate at or below 75% occupancy at all times, on a first-come/first-serve basis. Members will scan in AND scan out. For further details on how to add your barcode to your phone using the YMCA app, click here.
  • Youth aged 10+ are allowed on Wellness Floors as long as they have completed Youth Fitness Training.
  • Group exercise has restarted, including aqua classes. Please use the YMCA of Greater Omaha app to reserve your spot in class beginning at 5:00 pm the Thursday prior; learn more here.
  • Pools are open for lap swimming and water walking (Twin Rivers YMCA & Kirn Pool are excluded due to repairs. YMCA Healthy Living Center pool will reopen on July 6). Updated pool schedules will be posted weekly. Bring your own towel! Use the YMCA app to reserve your lane – learn more here
  • Locker rooms are open. Please bring your own towel.
  • Cardio and weight equipment, free weights and walking tracks are available, with some machines and stations unavailable for use.
  • Proper social distancing will be in place, with 6’ distance markers and appropriately placed equipment.
  • Water fountains will be bottle fill only.
  • Additional cleaning & safety measures will be in place, including key staff wearing masks.
  • Gyms, Childwatch, steam/sauna, coffee stations, towel service and other amenities are not currently available (see below for return dates). Y Without Walls online virtual classes are still available here.
