Member Testimonials

When you find the best quiet time, it can be very peaceful and you almost have the place to yourself with other like minded people. Plenty of good machines, free weights, and classes. Decent prices, parking and hours.

Variety of programs & services. Courteous staff.

When my wife and I first visited, Laura Rine greeted us and gave us a full tour of the facility as well as an overview of what the Y had to offer. She was very welcoming and while we were touring the facility, we met other staff members who were also friendly and welcoming. The facility was clean, the equipment was up to date and in excellent condition (they have also recently added many new pieces of equipment) and they have 3 indoor pickleball courts, which was of particular interest to us and was exactly what we were looking for. We have now been members for almost 4 months and we are very happy that we joined. We’ve met a lot of great people playing pickleball and my wife also takes a lot of the fitness classes offered daily, which she really enjoys. She has also done some personal training sessions with Ilia, and has been extremely satisfied with those sessions. Overall, the facility is nice, clean, with up to date equipment in excellent condition, and the staff is great! The monthly membership fee is also reasonable for all that you have access to. Not a lot more you could ask for! Highly recommend!

It is a nice place to work out swim or play sports

The staff is excellent and attentive, the programs are wonderful, and I feel very safe sending my child here. I truly appreciate the care and support they provide.

Communication with staff including James, Tati, Shawn, and miss Beverly.
There are days Sandy cries and does not want to walk into school and they are all very attentive to her needs and make her feel welcome.

The staff are friendly

I like the child interaction for my children, problem solving when an issue occurs, communication between staff and myself, my children are able to engage in exercise, crafts, and Lego building.

We couldn’t be happier with our kids after-school program. James and the rest of the staff are incredibly caring, patient, and attentive, and it truly shows in the way they interact with the kids every day. They take the time to understand each child’s needs, offer encouragement, and create a safe, supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and valued. Knowing my kids are treated with kindness and patience gives me such peace of mind. We’re very grateful for the dedication and heart this team brings to the program.”

Carlos is a fantastic director at the Penn Brook location - he is very personable, accommodating and knows the kids so well.
