Member Testimonials
I have liked everything about the Demakes Y in Lynn since the day I first got my membership. The staff is one of the most helpful and friendly groups anywhere. I've been swimming my entire life and I appreciate the pool maintenance and the steady and vigilant performance of all the lifeguards and Drew the Aquatics Director. Andrea treats her staff with respect and they respond like pros. The reception desk staff is super competent and always ready to help.

The variety
When you walk through the door you’re greeted with a smile everyone is pleasant and respectful
And it’s very clean in all areas
So far I’ve only been in the pool which is nice and the room with The Nautilus machines I haven’t used any other programs or done other activities yet
The only problem I feel should be changed is the access to the family room in the pool area and that men, women and children can shower change use the bathroom I walked in once and a women was undressed in the shower with the curtain half shut I don’t feel that area is safe for children

I hit 5, but it came up 10 and I can't change it.
I was very pleased for a long time since I joined in Dec. of 2021, but the last 2 months or so I am not so pleased. For starters, the Enhanced Fitness class has become a farce. Frank (God rest his soul.) was excellent, but I can't say the same for Marcy. It was suppose to be 3 time a week, but Friday has been left out in the cold. I started working out on the machines on Friday, then I found a class in Peabody. A couple of weeks ago, they put Enhance Fitness back there and I now go there and it's run the way it is suppose to. In Lynn, one day there were so many there, there was no room to move and no equipment left. This would not be allowed in Peabody. In Peabody, the girl tends to business, counts, so you know what's going on instead of a steady stream of nonsense, and the music does not take your head off, so you can hear the instructor.
Also, a fitness test was suppose to be done periodically, but isn't.
I have gotten to classes (this morning for one) and told the instructor wasn't coming. I have better things to do than go on a wild goose chase. I used the machines, but found a number of them didn't work.
I belonged to the Y before and left because things went down hill. I hope this isn't going to happen, again.
It’s a positive environment and staff are nice and helpful. My daughter has had a great experience learning to swim.
You offer an array of classes, a clean facility, and very friendly staff and instructors. The prices are quite reasonable, and you get a lot for your money! Additionally, one can use several clubs! Over all win, at the Y!!!!
I love the workout room. It would be nice if there were 2 saunas, one for women and one for men.
Pickleball, spin

I actually am recommending it to a family member as I type!
