Love it all!
Chance to make friends and do something heakhy
Good instructors. Fun community.
The swim lessons at the Y have been great for my two kiddos. I like that the program has an established structure with goals so that my kids have something to work towards, vs just winging it every lesson. I do wish that there was more consistency in the coaches, and that there was better viewing as a parent, but I do very much appreciate the lifeguards standing near the individual classes and being so alert.
Community, senior classes

It has been good Tommy is so far the best instructor
The cornucopia of athletic things to do, ways to train - there’s no facility like the Y.
And then the Y culture - a cornucopia people & perspectives as well…!

The coaches and Team
Very good instructors
My daughter has made so much progress since being in classes at Park st. She’d been in other swim lessons before, and the confidence and skills she’s gained since starting at Park St. The instructors have made her comfortable and is now excited to go under, and practice skills on her own.
The people and the service.
Great team building and confidence for my daughter. She made new friends and enjoyed the practices.
I pretty much like everything. The STAFF are friendly, the hours are good, and the locker rooms , in my opinion are reasonably clean given the heavy traffic form morning till closing 7 days per week.

It's convenient and the instructor's are patient and understanding for new swimmers.
Staff and patrons are all friendly and courteous. Also, there's plenty of equipment to use at all times of the day. Finally, there's a variety of classes with excellent trainers. I've been a member for over 20 years and it gets better every day!

Convenience, good equipment, friendly staff, no competition
The staff is amazing ! They're always helpful and willing to share their knowledge with you to get the most out of your YMCA experience.

My family and I use the weight rooms, the large pool and the room with the treadmill and exercise bikes. We have two requests for changes that we think would really benefit many of your members -- stay open later on weeknights and keep the exercise room on the third floor, near the track, unlocked and available during all hours. Keeping the YMCA open until 10 p.m. on weekdays would really benefit people who commute to work and don't get home until late evenings. Keeping the exercise room on the third floor open all the time is important to alleviate the frequent crowding in the main weight room downstairs. We hope you will seriously consider these requests. Thank you.
