What do you like about our programs and activities?

Great place to play Raquetball. Some suggestions:
1. Sweep n clean floors in courts on a regular basis. Often they are extremely dusty n slippery. Very dangerous for players.

2. Repair walls, n lights correctly.

3. Keep AC in good working condition.

Staff at facilities are always friendly, supportive,and helpful. Glad to be a member of this community.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I’m enjoying the community in the classes. Carol’s swim class and Gina’s Tai Chi are highlights of my week.
I feel so refreshed after the movement and look forward to the next week. Also, pickleball is just what I need for a challenge!

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I do my own thing but appreciate all the classes the Y has to offer. However, I would appreciate if certain members didn’t use the Y for their political agenda i.e. wearing Trump T-shirts Trump hats, flags on their heads, etc. They are disruptive.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

My husband and I joined the Y recently. We are in love with the Palmer Ranch YMCA. Here are a few of our favorite things…the indoor walking track…the atmosphere…appreciate that music is not blasting loudly. There can be many people at the Y at one time and it’s nice and spacious so there’s plenty of room for everyone. I tremendously enjoy the yoga class offerings and like that they are included in my Y membership. Also, with our busy schedules we take advantage of the extended hours. And we really appreciate the friendly staff upon entering. Thumbs up all around. Thank you.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Variety of options! I play pickle ball 3x’s a week, yoga 3x a week and prime time 1x.
I do think a better review would include “what you don’t like or what needs improvement!’

I take a water aerobics class six days a week. I’ve never done anything else in the gym at all. If it weren’t for the water classes, I wouldn’t be a member.
