Member Testimonials
Everyone has been very welcoming. The swimming has been great. The only draw back are the stairs in the pools, they're very difficult for seniors to use to exit the pools.
Glad to see Dancel Y is adding more classes and some at better times than previously. Love to new floor in aerobic room.
Great, but I think that many people would love to have a cold bath station....
The availability of events. Whenever I drive to the Y, I know that I can always choose from a variety of things to do or class to attend.
Everything!!! I like all of the amenities that this location has

Friendly staff
clean
lots of activities
The staff is very helpful and friendly.
The atmosphere is always friendly at the Y. Varieties of activities are available included in our membership. The Y is very much family oriented and it feels great when I see families enjoying the activities they do together like playing pickleball, swimming, playing ping pong and all the games in the game room. It’s a triple treat here at the Y: you get to exercise, you get to meet wonderful people and at the end of your visit here, you only don’t feel energized but you’ll feel your soul full of good vibes and spirits! And that you’ll know you have to come back every single day!

I enjoy coming to the Y. I am usually there 5 days a week. I celebrated 10 years post operatively of having had RNY bypass weight loss surgery. The Y has helped me maintain my goal weight. Every time I come I am welcomed by the front desk receptionist warmly and often by name! Its like family. I highly recommend anyone who wants to improve their fitness to join the Y. I am 67 years old and my motto is "use it so you don't lose it !" I want to keep all the body parts given to me by God!
It has something for everyone. The staff is friendly. They are responsive when you have questions.
