Member Testimonials
I use the pool as my source of exercise which I throughly enjoy. I can usually find an area to swim or a lane to use if I have not made a scheduled appointment time . That being said , as like yesterday morning there are scheduled appointment members who didn’t show for their scheduled swim. As I have observed this for a year or two, my suggestion would be that if it could be possible …..
That after 2-3 times of not showing during the members not canceled appointment that they have a warning & be made aware of this & possibility a window of time before they can schedule another time slot.
Or possibly the lifeguards can have the member cross there name off the board before entering the pool to know who have shown or not shown up & keep track of these members
What the Y may not realize is that they may be loosing membership renewals due to those who Choose not to deal with this situation & look elsewhere in regards to lane swimmers or swim walkers
The facility has wonderful amenities and is clean. All the staff have been wonderful. My kids look forward to going in Y Time and ask to go all the time (they hated it at our previous YMCA). I love that they always come home with fun little projects or artwork they made.
We haven't checked out the pool or classes yet, but plan to soon.
My only complaint is that there is no sauna.
cleanliness, friendly staff, swim reservations,
Clean, friendly, great staff
I don't participate in the programs and activities but I enjoy the cleanliness of the facility and the friendliness of the staff
Yes, I like the classes that I'm currently attending.I.m 79 so it works well for me.
The complaint is that the speaking from the teachers are never clear, since the mike NEVER
OR SELDOM works. That is Laurie, Sue & Howard. We are also very warm in that Building.
Friendliness, sanitation/cleanliness and feeling protected from illnesses. Elliptical and treadmill machines well spaced👍🏻 Thank you!!

There’s something for everyone to enjoy and everyone is really kind and helpful.
I like that is kept clean. Workout areas and restrooms. Please continue to due so it is very important during this pandemic. Continue to be friendly and smiling .
I like the fact that maintenance is a priority and there is plenty of staff to keep things covid free. Also the facilities are not "over" scheduled so classes are not crowded. I'm relatively close so the Y is perfect for me.
The workout gym is well laid out. The aerobic and spinning rooms are really good.

Good instructor’s and good aerobics classes
There is something for everyone's interests and needs. The instructors are wonderful. The facility is so clean and up to date. Thanks for taking the CoVid virus precautions - I appreciate the staff still wearing masks since we are still seeing cases, even of staff.
Would love to have a "women's center" return to the facility.
That YMCA is much nicer, cleaner, & service oriented ....than the ShadowBend YMCA.
Swimming facilities
Welcoming & family-friendly atmosphere.
Excellent group exercise instructors.
Judeo-Christian values remaining at the core of the Y while also respecting & accepting all people. These core values are evident in the items above as well as many more at the Y and truly differentiate this gym from others.
