What do you like about our programs and activities?

Really enjoyed the JV sports them week because it exposes the kids to various sports throughout the week. I also like that the kids go swimming every day.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

The staff is amazing. The facility is beautiful, clean, and welcoming. There's a lobby to relax and read, books to read to my small child while my other one is in a class, coffee all morning, multiple pools. Frankly, it's the cheapest country club I've ever been a member of!

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I truly enjoy everything about the programming. From the second day, every morning drop-off felt personal—my daughter and I were greeted by name, and the counselors on carpool duty knew each car, each make and model, and every camper associated with them. Even with that familiarity, they still followed the full check in process to ensure campers were properly dropped off, which made me feel secure and same for pick up.

The staff was always pleasant, even with long lines, taking the time to greet us and have a brief conversation. That level of care made the experience feel very personal. My daughter has been attending camps for about four years and has tried four different camps this summer alone, but this has truly been one of the best experiences we’ve had.

I especially appreciate the balance in the schedule: campers enjoy free play in the mornings—whether it’s water games, relaxing, or reading poolside—followed by structured programming in the afternoon. This model works beautifully, helping kids transition into a calmer wind-down period by pickup.

I am highly pleased with YMCA West Chester branch and the thoughtful way they run their program.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

It is a beautiful outdoor pool facility and surrounding lawn/play area. I took my 4 year old grandson (his family has their own membership). We enjoyed the day immensely. Plentiful chairs for our use. Ample shade areas for relaxing when we were not in the pool.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I use the e-gym 3 days a week and I have noticed things some people are doing
which should not be acceptable. I think the the Y should post some proper procedures to
be followed in that are to keep thongs running smoother.

# 1. Too many people are skipping to machines and not putting two machine space
from the person they go around and that is extremely annoying.
# 2. I've seen people just go any empty machine they see ignoring the fact they usually
interrupt the whole flow of machine rhythmic flow of timed movement from machine.
#3 I see people not wiping down the machine they are leaving but wiping the machine
they are going to next. a little backward I would say. I have also seen people taking to
long wiping down machines making it harder to log in to start before the exercise time
starts.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

All machines had adequate room. The natural light and fans made it very comfortable. The area for mat work was a nice size. Although I just looked through the window the childcare looked really fun and had a lot of variety of activities. My husband loved the pools!
