Member Testimonials
Jamie Wright runs an EXCELLENT program at the Bryan YMCA. My boys have attended the summer camp there for several years now, and our family have been members of the YMCA for a number of years as well. My boys enjoy the ANTS camp, they are happy and tired at the end of the day. Even during COVID, Jamie and team found creative ways to entertain the children while complying with COVID-19 safety protocols. I highly recommend the camp to others, and will continue to participate!
Bryan Y took such great care of our kids this summer. They got to know them personally and made each day enriching and positivee.
Jamie is the most amazing director ever!!!! I’m blown away with his positive attitude, organization and communication! I will keep my Kids there as long as Jamie is there! Superb job for running an amazing camp! We are so so appreciative
Jamie, Kennedy, and the ANTS Camp staff did a great job of mitigating the risk of COVID while still allowing the kids to be kids. The fact that it took 18 months for the first COVID case to be identified amongst the campers speaks to the care and safety they put in place. I feel confident sending my children to a camp or program that Jamie is involved in.
The staff at the Bryan YMCA have always been accommodating and professional! My family and I have developed a life long bond with my child’s coach!
Great communication and organization! Also, the intensity and engagement of the fans/coaches (when it doesn’t get negative) is really fun.
