Member Testimonials
The Geauga YMCA is an incredible facility and asset to the community. Unfortunately, the management of this facility has a long history of subpar management. The aquatics center is frequently nonoperational with pool and hot tub closures. Lengthy delays in repairing equipment and facilities. For the average member it is very frustrating to wait weeks and weeks on facility repairs that should be correctable in hours or days. It is very discouraging. The staff of the Geauga YMCA are wonderful people. Hard working, energetic, and always willing to help and assist the membership. Clearly this YMCA needs better leadership.
Variety of programs, mixed participants, friendly staff, and nice facility. I wish that you offer more dance like Zumba class.
We very much appreciated Geauga YMCA's response and services during the August 2024 wide spread multi-day power outage!!
I'm speaking for our son First name removed whom enjoys working out usually three times a week.
He appreciates your helpful staff and friendly atmosphere!
To me it’s more about the people and the YMCA philosophy. I do love the variety associated with the facilities, i.e. weight room, gymnasium, pools. Everyone I have met who works at the Y have been very helpful and respectful.
Everything was fantastic and my kids had a blast! We will be back next year!

I grew up going to the "Y" It was a wholesome, safe environment. In today's world, it is nice to know that you are still here. Keep up the great work.
I like the ability to take my children with me if I want to workout and I was very impressed by the fact you opened your doors in time of need . My family utilized the showers and were grateful for the snacks during the power outage so thank you very much .
Variety of activities, caring staff
The programs are welcoming and inclusive.
Activity diversity, great counselors
The variety of activities and field trips.
Our son William adores this camp. He is able to be stimulated, have fun and be worked out in the pool and have activities outside the camp. Love that he can swim, have ice cream, have outings and have his cup filled with attention and careful care.
Pickleball !
The Y has helped me in my Triathlon Training. Thank you
I like the pool and the water exercises with TRAINED instructors.
I am disappointed that some attendees spend the class socializing and not actively participating in the exercises. Often, because they are talking with one another, they do not move from their spots and other participants must move around them.
There needs to be different levels of classes like one for those who want to socialize and another for those who want to work hard. Instructors should not be changed because the class is too "hard". This is just like being in high school again: avoid the work, but still want to be part of the activity -- and still get full credit/benefits (?)!
