Member Testimonials
I live group fitness. I am looking forward to having the kids programs back. My kids really miss playing in the gym and making new friends at the Y.
I enjoy the aquafitness program. I attend 3X per week. I have used the gym for any years and find it very good.
Like the classes, keeps me motivated and on-track.
Everything is great
I love how welcoming the staff is when you walk in the front doors. The change rooms are always super clean. The building seems very safe with all the Covid protocols put in place.
Great variety
I use the pool only, it is a great facility. The staff are friendly.
Hello everyone, Its so diisturbing we are unable to go to the Y at this time yet realizing having to respect restrictions.Its so frustrating since I am triple vaccinated and yet there are those who are not vaccinated and creating overwhelming concern in the community and hospitals.I truly appreciate how accomadating everyone has been with the pool and its resrictions prior to the closing again.Will continue to be creative with staying heallthy and hope to see you very soon.Stay safe and healthy. Thankyou. Long time member Dianne O'Connor

Clean and very friendly staff
I feel safe here
Very clean facility and exercise upstairs well spaced.
Aquatics programs
Go to aqua classes which i enjoy, and go everyday. but showers SUCK. Complain nothing happens. They need new shower heads.. you either get cold to maybe warm, hardly ever hot water and pressure is horrible. .
I really love the Aquafit classes as being in the water helps control my pain. Having said that, I wish there was a tiered program so that we could only pay for the use of the pool. With the pool being closed again, my fee that was a reach prior, just makes me angry. I am paying now for something and getting nothing.
I love the classes you offer. In particular Group Power, Group Centergy and Group Fight.
there are lots of different things to do and there is always someone there to help you if you need help.
All good
Positive, knowledgeable, friendly service from staff.

Group fitness classes
Your staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly. I always feel at home when I come to the Y for a fitness class. I mostly enjoy the aquafit classes and am so happy we’re at the point in the pandemic that allows us to get back in the pool. I also enjoy the fitness room upstairs and have been given good advice from staff on which machines to use according to my capabilities.
I always leave the Y feeling better than when I entered.
Everyone is so friendly and welcoming and I love the aquafit classes!
