Park of the Week: Copple Family Park

September 11, 2023

The YMCA of Lincoln has built two new playgrounds and they are for community use! Both Copple Family Y Playround and Fallbrook Y Playground opened recently. Copple Family Y Playground is be a great park for toddlers and preschoolers.



  • Climbing Wall
  • Slides
  • Spinning Chairs
  • Walking path
  • Balancing Bridge



LOCATION

  • The Copple Y is located at 8700 Yankee Woods Dr Ste B (84th and near Old Cheney). The Copple Y playground is on the North side of the building (right next to their outdoor pool). The playground is next to an outdoor area for a middle school so you may be next to middle schoolers during parts of the day.

SPECIAL FEATURES & PLAYGROUND NOTES

  • There is a walking path that goes around the Copple Y and into the surrounding areas.
  • There is green space around the playground along with two basketball courts that are part of the attached middle school.
  • The climbing wall octagons are great! Multiple kids can use these at a time and they are a unique structure that you don't see in other parks.

BATHROOMS, PARKING & OTHER AMENITIES

  • There are no public drinking fountains or bathrooms 
  • Copple Y has lots of parking. While there isn't parking directly next to the playground there are many lots near it.
