Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

In February 2014 Congressman Seth Moulton awarded Pauline Harney a congressional commendation for contributing to the betterment of the Salem community.
Having retired a decade ago, I discovered Pauline's Salem YMCA Monday, Wednesday and Friday aqua fitness class. It continues to significantly increase my quality of life and is the only program I participate in. Highly recommend this welcoming beneficial well attended program.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

The kids club staff is amazing and the swim instructors are fantastic. Crafting a Community reminded me why I love handcrafts. Mat pilates with Gina is so much more than an exercise class that many regulars have been coming back for years. The Salem Y has become an important part of my family’s routine and community.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

For me, the location is ideal, less than a
five minute walk., so that’s a plus. I’ve belonged for many years and like the ease of using equipment that is easily understood, not all technology is like that. I can breeze in and do my routine quickly and leave or take my time and linger, perhaps interacting briefly with other like minded individuals. It’s a community.
On other days, I may be whimsical and try a yoga or Zumba class. I love the freedom to change my routine, or not. The faces may change over the years but not the ambiance.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

It's the ultimate community space. If you like that sort of thing. I like that it doesn't feel like a "health club" for rushed people (there is some of that) but the community programs and the diversity of the space makes it a really great YMCA

What do you like about our program and activities?

Well, first my son seems to like going. At first he doesn't like to wake to go school but he like going to camp. And he enjoys the activities and the teacher there. So I appreciate that. Things seems to be very organized.
Is there an after school indoor gym/program he can go to to play basketball and stuff?
