My wife and I love the Y! I love that there are few to no TVs around and people are usually very polite. It's also a very friendly and welcoming space for people just getting started with fitness and working on lifting. We've spread the word about the SOYMCA to so many of our friends too.

My two minor gripes: the plates for weightlifiting are often scattered throughout the various machines in a way that makes them annoying to find. If they could be re-organized on a biweekly basis or something I think that would be awesome. The other thing - kids/tweens using the assisted pull-up frequently let it slam in a way that seems dangerous for them and disruptive for others. Otherwise the kiddos are usually very polite and respectful and safe in the lifting/cardio area.

It seems like there are a lot of accommodations that are being made when there are staff changes but as a client of the YMCA all I see is that it’s done smoothly. I appreciate that.

I have only attended once, but it was a positive experience. Employees were friendly snd helpful. Lynda's class on Wednesday at 1:30 is fantastic and keeps seniors moving!

The staff are friendly, the facility is clean, the lifeguards show up for their shifts, the facility is not overcrowded. I couldn’t recommend this location more.

Love all the machines that you have now. Employees are so friendly and helpful to your members. The people exercising are respectful to clean machines after each use to cut down on germs spreading. Also, just a few blocks from my house. I have already recommended to a few friends and my son. All of them have signed up with the Y.

there's some benches at the outside pool entrance, the men's locker room needs a bench outside the sauna

Ignorant move taking this bench away from the sauna not to mention you have a pile of benches at the outside pool entrance

I love the Y and the community it brings. The facility is well run and always so clean.

I would love these additions;

Extra programing during DPSCD breaks, open rock climb, open swim, or other extra activities for kids

I would also appreciate some programing for "second shift" working adults! I would totally take a 10am yoga or dance class during the week! People in the service industry, hospitality, and health care have a wide range of schedules, I think you would find interest in late morning classes for non-seniors.

Thanks!
