Everyone on the front desk is welcoming, friendly and helpful. Particular shout outs for full time staff - Safi and Darvin. Dance Party with Alexc is uplifting every time. Making a way and providing a place for Mahjongg is much appreciated. Thanks Stacey. In mahjong I met a board member, Sue Sullivan and I have witnessed her as a listener regarding the Y-related comments from individuals in our group of 14. She is an asset in listening to members and in providing the newsletter.

I have just rejoined. I am pleased with personal contact with staff. I am figuring out app and programs to record workouts.
Although I engage in only the use of the weight room and cardio equipment, there are active cardio classes, swimming classes, and outside organized exercise activities that participants appear enthused to attend.

The organization makes collection efforts for those who are not as privileged/ well employed. Especially in a state that chose against expanding Medicaid, the efforts can help those with less.
