Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

The facilities are state of the art. The fitness center is spacious and well maintained. The locker room facilities are the cleanest and best maintained I have ever seen. The staff are friendly, helpful and professional. The parking is adequate. I only regret I dod not switch over to the Marblehead Y sooner.

What do you like about our program and activities?

My girls are strong swimmers but their technique was lacking. Over the summer I have seen them speed through the water because their technique is so much better.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

It is a friendly place with many options for health and community making, great exercise instructors, and usually clean.

Women's dressing room lockers stink and why build a sauna that is so small?

Otherwise, love the place.

What do you like about our program and activities?

We love the combination of fun and learning for our child. He has always come home with new skills, interests, vocabulary, stories, and signs of learning all while being completely happy and comfortable at school and with the entire staff. His teachers have been kind, attentive, structured, and have helped our child through some developmental stages. We love the administration and their general competence, organization, and willingness to be compassionate and helpful; they have always been professional without being rigid.

What do you like about our program and activities?

My son had a great summer. He was swimming in the pool every day, played different sports, did strength exercises. He enjoyed having new friends. Every day was busy. Even when the weather was very hot outside, I knew it would be great for kids to be in the gym with the air conditioner. The staff was attentive to parents' questions too.

I love coming to theY. Y offers diverse opportunities to get, stay in shape and have a positive lifestyle. Also, Y reaches out to all members of community - extremely inclusive!

Wish there were more exercise classes on weekend mornings.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

It is a great facility with many great programs. However, it is difficult to get needed information. The N. Shore YMCA website is very clunky - difficult to use. And when you call your general information number, your voicemail system is difficult to navigate. It would be quite simple to say press 0 for operator.at the welcome center. And if you leave voicemail on 2, 4, 5 it's very difficult to get a call back. Communication is the worst part of the Y experience in my opinion.
