Mahaska County YMCA At A Glance…

The Mahaska County YMCA has been serving the Mahaska County area for over 105 years. Throughout those 105 years we have continually touched lives and embedded memories. The YMCA was established in 1903 in a 3 story building on the square in Oskaloosa. As reported in the Oskaloosa Daily Herald on Wednesday, April 29, 1903 the Mahaska County YMCA was delivered a dedication speech from President Roosevelt on the evening of Tuesday, April 28, 1903. President Roosevelt believed in our missions and the goals of commitment we were and still are achieving with the community. The beautiful YMCA that was located at our town square was housed with all the up-to-date furnishings, dormitory necessities, and sporting equipment. After 66 years of continued service to the community, the Mahaska County YMCA moved to its existing location, 414 North 3rd Street. Since the movement in 1969 the Mahaska County YMCA has continued to thrive and serve.
