I am pleased that there are Programs for 3 year olds that need to burn a lot of energy. Our neighborhood YMCA is Carver YMCA. I have been a member there for almost 20 years and I feel like they have failed me gor not offering 4U basketball.
Everybody is friendly the place is well kept
I love the camaraderie and the lack of pretension here. I really appreciate that the pool is always open for lap swimming. I love taking classes with Linda Rosser. She is a very special person. Everyone is so freindly and encouraging here. It is the perfect place for me to work out.

I thoroughly enjoy participating at the Eastlake Y.M.C.A. since 2001...The yoga classes meet the needs of me maintaining a healthy lifestyle....participating in the "coach approach" has improved my blood pressure numbers....I had participated in a "barrel class"..."step aerobics class"..."tone-up" class... and utilize the inside track throughout my years as a member of Eastlake Y.M.C.A.
However, my "favorite activity " is a participant with the (A.O.A.) Active Older Adults where we meet once a month, including trips...birthday luncheons...Annual Holiday Party....establishing a "reading" connection with the Y's child development center...attending the annual "Mayor's Senior Ball"....and the annual Y.M.C.A. May breakfast....
The Y.M.C.A. is now a very pivotal and satisfying aspect in my life since my retirement in 2017...
