I think the Salem Y is a wonderful resource for our community. I love going to the Y to swim because it is a very welcoming place. Staff are friendly, the pool and building are well maintained (and very clean). I feel lucky to have such a great place to exercise in Salem.
Great place
Nice people
It has changed tremendously since I was a kid. Also, I cancelled my membership during CoVid, and recently rejoined. It couldn’t have been any easier, the staff was super friendly and just incredibly helpful. The Salem Y is great, my hat is off to whoever helped make all of these great changes.

5 days a week I take water aerobics, wether shallow with Pauline, or deep water with Lori, or LaSplash, and the instructors are amazing, and the members are amazing too. It’s become like a family, a group of true friends, that if I happen to miss a class, I’ll get a text to check up on me, making sure all is ok. Now that’s a good group of people there. And the life guards are like family too, they know you by name, you’re greeted with a warm hello and goodbye, and sincere friendliness.
The pool, wether doing laps or taking a class is outstanding, best part of the Y!
