I love the people-great number of friends that belong to the YMCA! There is adequate room filled with many cardio machines and weights! There are many quality classes and pickleball and racquetball courts and a great place to walk or run on the exterior! Been here mostly on for over 40 years and it also has a good location!!!

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Aqua Aerobics with Tasha gives me a good workout. I don’t like Elaina. It’s like watching TV with her. Melissa is too unorganized.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Gym is great. Very well rounded. Helen the head lifeguard is kind of a tyrant, and really isn’t too nice to her staff. Pretty regularly, there are members complaining about her. Maybe keep her in the back. Otherwise all good!
