Busy but enjoyable
Enjoy the water classes with Sherry Oliver and Theresa's class on Friday. The only thing is that the people are rude and disrespectful. It's a class where we are trying to participate but there are quite a few who just talk and don't pay attention nor do the exercises. They treat the class as their social time and have NO consideration for others. Sherry Oliver plans her classes for the benefit of alp and all they do is ignore her. Quite hurtful. Before each class there should be a reminder that the class is for ALL and NOT your social time. It's understanding that you might want to say hi but then move on....I just find it frustrating to get out of bed and then struggle to hear over ALL those conversations the entire class. Also the water in the family pool is not walk in lately...
Engaging staff
The NC Y is my very favorite! It’s my Y, as I feel very at home there. The front desk staff is always so friendly and welcoming too. All of the class teachers have been helpful and friendly as well.

I like the jem and kids club
The convenience and how friendly the staff is.
convenience.
Nice, clean facility run by friendly people at reception. I love the classes and the instructors are excellent. Lots of variety in the class choices, and the hours fit anyone's schedule. My son visits from DC and the Y is very accommodating in letting him work out when he's away from home. There's nothing I would change at the Y.
The rewards activity for kids club where if a child earns 3 positive cards, they get a reward. The positive behavior reinforcement strategy is much needed especially so nice there was a lot of focus on negative behavior in the past
The staff is so friendly and helpful
I like water aerobics and all the nice instructors and friends I have met. The water exercises help my knee and back.
I love the whirlpool, walking track, pools and sauna. Also, the exercise equipment and areas for exercising are great. The employees are very friendly. The overall atmosphere is bright and welcoming.

Being treated like family
