About the Butler-Gast YMCA

Formerly the North Branch and Miler Park Branch, Butler-Gast opened its doors in 1995 and has been serving the north Omaha community ever since. With its gymnasium, cardio and weights equipment, swimming pool, group exercise rooms and childwatch room, the Butler-Gast YMCA is more than a place to work out. It’s a place to grow. Find your place at the Butler-Gast YMCA.

Butler-Gast YMCA Announces Final Operational Day to Make Way for New Facility and North High Stadium Through Project Game ON 

We are excited to continue sharing progress on Project Game ON, the transformational plan to build a brand-new Butler-Gast YMCA and North High stadium that will serve North Omaha for generations to come. 

 As part of this journey, we want to let you know that the final day of operations at the current Butler-Gast YMCA will be Friday, July 18, 2025, at 5 p.m. After that, the facility will close and the YMCA property team will prepare the space for construction. This includes repurposing equipment and supplies for use at other YMCA locations and allowing the project manager to begin site preparations to keep the construction timeline on track, as shared in our original announcement. 
 

As a reminder, all Butler-Gast YMCA members who had an active membership as of April 4, 2025, and are still active members, will continue to enjoy free access to all 12 YMCA locations across greater Omaha during the construction period, including the Maple Street YMCA and Downtown YMCA branches, which are closest to the Butler-Gast YMCA  location. Members that joined on April 5 or after will continue being drafted monthly unless they  cancel by July 31, 2025. We encourage our community to take advantage of nearby YMCA locations to stay connected to a variety of health, wellness, and social programs.
