I like that there are so many options. I'm a fan of the educated coaches. I don't know if there is already a screening process, but if say there was someone who wanted to be a volunteer basketball coach, I would hope there would be a process that someone (maybe Ethan) would go through the applicants and make sure they 1. know something about basketball and 2. are friendly enough with kids that the child will actually enjoy the sport.
My daughter was placed on a team where she thought the coach that was helping out was going to be her actual coach. Luckily he was just pitching in, but we were scared because the volunteer didn't seem to know much about the sport and didn't have the likability aspect. He was very quiet and reserved. Luckily he wasn't the actual coach and the new one is much better!
Great silver sneaker classes and AOA classes. Great instructors too! I work out 4 days a week n love it!
Thank you!
I like the water aerobics with Sue. She’s fun. The facilities are clean and kept up well
I love Shirley’s Tuesday and Thursdays, water aerobics classes!
I like the close proximity to my house. Staff is very friendly. I enjoy using the E-gym.
One suggestion would be to reach out to the Chin community about swimming classes.
I teach an ESL class at St Mark and several were interested to have their children learn to swim.
The staff is friendly and welcoming. I like the variety of group classes and equipment available in the wellness center. Baxter does a great job staying up to date with the latest in wellness. I also like the option of the virtual classes.
All the programs are wonderful! Convenient location with great facility and staff.
Variety of programs
Love your swim aerobic workouts and the kid’s summer camp!
I like the later class times. I work during the day so I appreciate the classes being offered after 4:30 pm
I love that there is a nice workout room with updated equipment/machines, pool, hot tub, & sauna. I like that I can go to any YMCA location to get my workout in & that there are a variety of ways to get that workout in such as 360 for the days I can't make it bc I am divorced w/a kid who is very active in sports w/a dad who lives in Avon, IN while we live 30 min SE of Indpls. so it can be very challenging to get it all in before 9pm some days.
I am also looking forward to the new outdoor field at the Baxter Y.
Something I was not happy with though:
My son & his girlfriend wanted to check out the Y w/me on Sunday, but they work nights so they don't get up until around 4:30pm/5pm so by time they got there & got through taking a copy of their license & signing a waiver that didn't come through her phone right away they didn't even get to check out the pool bc it was already closed. I was unimpressed with staffs evaluation with that being worthwhile. At this point they wasted a free visit to NOT even get a chance to try out the pool which he was most interested in. I was unaware that they closed at 6pm on Sunday.
I love going there to work out
Just use the wellness center

Friendly people and staff. Drop in pickleball is convenient. Circuit in workout room is time efficient.

Baxter YMCA has a very nice facility that is clean, and has numerous equipment to facilitate any exercise needs. Top it off with a friendly and knowledgeable staff to create a wonderful experience! A+
Very creative, fun, and clean!
There’s something for every age group.
Jennifer is excellent in her 8 am Tuesday and Thursdsy classes. I wish she taught more often. The work out is excellent and I feel like I've really accomplished something when I finish. I also do Monday Wednesday and Friday at 8 but Jennifer is by far the best.
