Member Testimonials
It's really great to be able to have access to multiple different gyms in the North Shore area.
I’m actually buying a monthly membership for my granddaughter today when we come in. Since going I have come to love it. Her being able to spend quality time with her there.
Great facility
It would be a 10 but I joined to play pickleball and recommend it to others for the same reason. For the summer months, the pickleball playing hours have been reduced significantly which is very disappointing
McPherson bball has been so fun! Thank you coaches and directors!
Accessible, they go for a long time, the instructor was good and my daughter was able to be challenged beyond her age group since the groups were divided on site by what level they happened to be at.
I do wish the website was clearer - I didn’t realize there was rolling sign up until I happened to call for another reason.
Everything, communication is wonderful, it's easy to sign my son up for any & all programs. We'vs been part of th Y family for many years & have always had great experiences!
Organized. Professional
My son enjoyed his gymnastics class and learned a lot.
Initiative allowing children to develop the ability to play as a team.
And it also allows parents to discover the talents of their children
everything. it gives my very active child an outlet with some guidelines
The exposure to new things and people. Our son is part of the Covid World so he has had limited activities outside of our house for the majority of his life.
Leia loved all. Even for a short time great program.
Good mix of crafts, games and outdoor time. The pool is a big plus!
James had a great time with Camp Star/Sterling Woods! He loved the group activities and the staff were very attentive
My son had fun and looked forward to going every day . The half classroom half camp is a great idea. There were new activities every day and when it was pickup time he always had a smile on his face
The gymnastics camp at the Beverly Y is OUTSTANDING across the board: staff, facilities and daily itinerary; but most of all the staff is so friendly and good with the kids!
My daughter goes to the Y camps at Beverly e every year, and she has a blast! She's there for close to 7 hours and comes out exhausted but with a smile on.
This comment is about the week long STEM Technology and Gaming camp. This is an organized, well run program with low staff/camper ratio. The facilities are ideal in hot weather and there is a nice balance between outdoor activity, indoor learning experience, an hour of swimming per day and gaming time. The campers arrival and departure times (given an hour range on both ends) were very relaxed and made the transition easy for the campers and convenient for parents. The staff were friendly and professional; saw that the kids had fun!!
The staff engages the kids, and they do a wonderful job. The kids have an awesome summer experience. We couldn’t be happier!
My daughter loves to attend and can’t wait to go back the next day.
Brayden & Ashton loved their first full day camp experience! We only choose one week, but wish we had done more! The councilors were friendly and quickly learned the boys names and welcomed them every morning. They loved the swimming, archery and daily craft activities. Thanks for a great summer experience!
The camp staff was AMAZING
It’s helping the kids stay in tuned with school & activities
Our daughter absolutely loves participating in the YMCA gymnastics camps. She has tried various camps over the years, but gymnastics is her clear favorite. However, we have plenty of friends whose children participate in other YMCA camps and love them equally.
Our daughter is engaged, challenged, and looks forward to going to camp every day.
We are very happy and highly recommend the YMCA for children's camp.
The technology camp was a lot of fun, my child really enjoyed it. The counselors were great!
Great program. Wish there was more pool time. 2x - day or longer the one time they have pool access.
Program, staff all excellent. Only comment….web site not very intuitive, user friendly. Very frustrating at times.
My children like coach Matt and coach Jeff. We like the variety of sports clubs offered.

Clean, welcoming, friendly atmosphere (thanks to both staff and patrons).
