Member Testimonials

Well! This is our 3/4th year participating at the UMLY because WE LOVE IT.
The councellors are always a great bunch of fun,caring, young adults, which some are also familiar faces because we have seen them the previous year/s also, we the parents love it and our two daughters love it too, (maybe a bit too much). My oldest doesn't want to go back to school, she wants to stay at the UMLY........ And my youngest is sad to leave but happy for the return of school again.
Thank You UMLY for providing a safe, fun, happy, exciting place for our kids to unwind, make new friends, socialize and try new activities, especially after being restricted, due to the 2020 COVID pandemic. This has been your best year yet, you didn't come short you came better and stronger with your new activities added this year 2021 to the summer camp program.
May your program be forever fruitful, and blessed with a great team of councellors and kids.

Meres Family XOXO

I like this program as my son become more active and had good physical exercises in the summer camp.

Super organized and my 5 year old can't stop raving about friendliness of staff and variety of fun activities that each day is filled with. Thank you Y and the staff.

After school programs.....freedom. good choices.

The flexibility they offer. They allowed for early drop off and late pick up. In addition, the activities my son participated in such as swimming lessons, art, music and stage.

My son was in the half-day/lunch bunch Woody Pals and attended every week this summer. He loved the different weekly themes and was highly invested in the excitement of Penny Wars. We will definitely be looking to sign up again for next summer!

A diverse offering of experiences.

Variety of camps offered and the care the staff offer campers.

I like that the kids were active all day. I also liked the extended hours you provide.

Summer camp is the best!!!

I feel all people worked hard and well to make this summer’s camp a huge success. We really appreciate your efforts!

The different weekly camp focus- art, basketball, science, etc, mixed with daily swimming and general
Playtime

Very organized.

Staff is very pleasant, cheerful and easy to talk to.

I like how they are kept busy with all the daily activities.

I like how there is different activities daily.

I love that they get to swim.

I love how there is a nature center and farm animals.

The summer camp program provided many different options. Hopefully day trips can be restarted next year!

All outdoor, no tech, swim lessons included

The camp counselors and camp leaders are amazing with the kids, and really keep their interests all .. day .. long!! My son loves summer camp, and always looks forward to it every year!

My daughter loved the Y camp this summer, and I think it was a great learning experience for her. I was amazed at how well the camp operated.

My kids always have enjoyed the camp program

The wood shop camp was a great hands on experience for my tween son who is feting bored with “traditional” summer camp.

My kids had a great time at tennis camp (racket rookies) this summer. Drop off and pick up was smooth and organized.

My son was so happy and excited about camp. He loved that adventure camp had so much to do. Thank you for keeping him busy and active each day.

Cleanliness and variety of equipment in the wellness gym.

athe diversity of the programs and the wide range of skill level to participate in various sports

I enjoy the ease of signing up and playing in the adult tennis clinics along with the challenge of playing with other experienced players.

I love the outdoor 50-meter pool. The staff are consistently friendly. That said, during these Covid days, I am not exercising in indoor spaces (other than pool B), so I only interact with front desk folk and lifeguards.

My children were well entertain they were able to go to the Y and play basketball until the night around 9 PM it was the go to place when we as a family had no plans.

The programs for children and families in the community is what I like. I find as my own children are older now, the programs and activities are not focused on my needs any longer. Most likely moving to a country club that has a focus on tennis for adults.

availability, cleanliness, simplicity

The cardio center has been run very well through the pandemic.

I never participated, only used the equipment in your gym. All good.
