YMCA Office, circa 1887; Mahaska County; Oskaloosa; Iowa
Subject
Description
The Young Men's Christian Association has played a pivotal role in the history of Mahaska County. Located in Oskaloosa, this YMCA has served as a place for growth spiritually and athletically for over a hundred years. This is a photograph taken of the office of the YMCA in Oskaloosa back around 1887, the year the YMCA first opened its doors in the community. As one can see from the picture, the office was spacious and inviting, indicating a welcoming sense to patrons visiting the establishment during the day. The original YMCA built in Oskaloosa lasted until 1969, when a newer facility was built and opened in the community.
