Classes, people, location
It’s a great place to workout and is always clean!
The dumbbell rack in the weight room is never organized and it makes it challenging to find the right weight and to know where to put the weights back because a lot of them aren’t in the right spot. I thought maybe it was a one day thing but it’s been like this many times. It would be awesome if this could be monitored by the staff in the room. Thank you!
Clean facilities, polite and personable staff. Thank you!
Clean!
We love our Y membership. I a swim laps and use the steam room afterwards while my husband uses the bike and walking track. Staff is very kind and professional as well.
Thank you very much.
My kid is actually learning, and getting a solid foundation in the strokes.
It’s kid friendly and fun with real skill development
Friendly, inclusive atmosphere.
Great facility
Great instructors
I loved the park street Y! The facilities are beautiful. The front desk people are all super nice and welcoming, but want to give a special shout out to Frone. He made my day.
My son loves the instructors. He didn’t know how to swim 1 year ago and he is in stage 5 now. Thanks YMCA for teaching my son how to swim
There are so many great options for staying fit at the Y! I love the fact that there are a variety of classes all day long.
Both instructors were very good at communicating and modeling swimming techniques. Although this was a small group, they dealt with each of us individually and helped us understand what we needed to know to improve.
The instructors. Viv who taught the advance class is great!!!
It's a great place in every respect.
How all of the instructors are patient and friendly to the kids! Dedicated to teach and make fun for the little ones!
Friendly helpful staff. A diverse group of members. Everyone’s welcoming. No sense of judging. Very down to earth.
I am very please with all different classes that can fits my schedules. And they have all classses too.
The YMCA staff is very accommodating, they not only care for our kids but they involved them in activities that are fun and where they learn and grow.
Everything!
Mr. Zay is great with the kids! I absolutely loved hearing that someone was teaching them capoeira—so awesome—I would love to know more about that.
My child loves after care activities and environment. Brookdale After care staff are great.
I like that it provides a safe, fun environment for my child after school.
My child goes to aftercare two days/week and I think it’s her favorite part of the school day! Miss Adela and her staff do a great job with the limited space they are given to operate by the school (only the library in the winter bc of basketball.) As an educator, I know that’s it’s exceptionally difficult to meet the needs of children of differing ages. The Kindergarten kids all sort of hand in the same area and I like that it encourages my daughter to meet students who are not in her class.
I love the YMCA programs.
The staff are great and really helpful.
The counselors are all very friendly and engaged. I feel like it's an extension of the school day - my daughter comes home with crafts, projects and fun new experiences.
We're so happy with the Aftercare program at Forest Avenue. Our daughter genuinely looks forward to it each day.
It's a great combination of structured and free play, there are fun crafts and caring and attentive staffers.

Impressed with the high level of facilities, activities and knowledgeable staff. A Y member for twenty years.
