Member Testimonials
I've had a wonderful first few weeks as a Y member. This is the first time I've joined a Y as a family. My kids have really enjoyed the free climb nights, family swim and they also loved Fit & Fun, with Austin as their leader. I'm really enjoying BodyPump in the early mornings with Deb because this is the only time I can get to the gym by myself. The staff at the front desk, especially Arnette, are wonderful. The cozy fire was so nice to sit next to during Open Climb the other night. I just wanted to stay a while, it was so welcoming. I even took a Family activity take-home activity for my boys and they had fun doing it at home. I appreciate the family bathrooms so much having opposite-gendered young children (age 7-8), it just takes all the stress out of wondering if they are going to get the shower to work/not make it too hot, get dressed timely, goof around, etc. in the boys locker room by themselves. I've already started the process of taking advantage of FitQuest and I'm happy to say that the Y environment and staff have motivated me to build my health and wellness routine. I've never gone to a gym regularly before so this is huge for me.

ALL of the staff are friendly and helpful EVERY time I visit the Y in Catonsville!
Thank you for ALL you do!
People are friendly and it's pretty affordable. Plus convenient to be able to go to several locations. The locker setup at Catonsville is my favorite but I wish the locker room was a little warmer.
It is close to my home, the equipment / machines are great and numerous. Plus, there is plenty of room to move around.

Wonderful staff and great environment.
My only issue is the lack of life guards but they are just like everywhere else - short staffed.
Hopefully some of the people that just passed the life guard test will work for the Y!
But seriously great environment that was fun even during the prime Covid craziness!
