What do you like about our program and activities?

Would love a class for my daughter that starts at 3:45pm or 4pm. She's in first grade and currently takes 3:30 but it's tight with the drive from school and getting changed for class.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

It is a wonderful resource. Recent upgrades have improved the facility and program.
One question: Why did you remove the wall-mounted hand sanitizers, especially near the cafe and the main entrance? Covid, flu, nd other infectious diseases are still present. People touch all sorts of equipment and can easily pass infections, germs, etc.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

The instructors are fabulous. I attend classes in the pool, a killer work out with Gus, Hannas class is fun and addresses the whole body, and Tania’s class wonderful with music, movement, and dance. My recommendation for their classes is that there’s nothing better, for your body, soul, and spirit. Fun.

What do you like about our program and activities?

Austin is wonderful! The Sports Mania program is fabulous, and I appreciate that it runs at the same time as Little Sharks swim team. My daughter is on the swim team, so it's nice for my son to have something to do during the same time (4pm). Austin's communication is appreciated. We love Sports mania!

What do you like about our program and activities?

Because of Austin my child loves Soccer. He goes above and beyond to support not only her but me as a parent. Thank you to the Y for offering this class with my membership so my child can try a variety of sports before we commit to one and pay for something a 3 year old ends up deciding they don't want to do.
