Copple Family YMCA

YMCA of Lincoln & Lincoln Public Schools

This project is the product of a unique partnership between the Lincoln Public Schools and YMCA of Lincoln. The 243,291 square foot facility is noteworthy for its use of nearly every structural element available in the industry. The build also incorporates both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a water track, a spa, and splash pad. More than 298 geothermal wells fuel the facility, and three indoor gymnasiums create space for intramural sports, tournaments, and other activities.
