Member Testimonials
lot of variety
I love the group classes, especially in the morning. The staff and instructors are all so helpful.
Everyone is super positive, kind and inclusive. My daughter had a fantastic summer because of camp and she wants to go back next year! Thank you to everyone involved for your hard work and commitment to a great cause.
I LOVE Jen's Spin class on Friday at 7:30. Jen is personable, genuine and fun, the music is great and she helps build community among the attendees in the class.
I do wish Franklin would consider offering a 6am spin class on Mondays or Wednesdays.
Thank you!
Hi
My kids and me we love the programs they learn a lot , make new friends too the support is great too every week my kids talking about summer camp about the counselors thank you for everything they do whin my boys.
The Y is our family's place to go for healthy lifestyle choices.
Great counselors and programs for the kids!
There are a variety of programs and activities for the kids to do. My son doesn't like to do art, but they find something for him to do while at art so he doesn't miss the opportunity. They have a great support system for when the kids are having difficult times.
Well run and plenty of instruction
My kids aren't great about providing details, but what I love is that my kids love Camp Wiggi, they are excited to go every morning, and are in great moods when I pick them up.
My daughter is not a fan of the basic Day Camp at the YMCA (too hot, not enough water activities), but absolutely loves all the specialty camps ESPECIALLY Camp Silverlake. I know there are some things out of the control of the staff but it was a huge bummer that the lake itself was shut down for multiple weeks last summer due to bacteria in the water. I ended up still having to pay for camp for those weeks but she did not attend as it was awful for her to have to go to camp in the peak heat of summer next to a body of water, but not be allowed in it ("torture" as she called it). Best case scenario if the lake itself is closed, the YMCA could offer a refund for those campers who would not be attending during that time. Other than that she loves the staff and generally has a blast. She is looking forward to attending camp again this summer!
Everything
My boys enjoy the activities, the songs and have lots of fun! The camp counselors and their energy is what makes your camp stand out without a doubt. Keep it up!
I am constantly impessed with the quality of the instruction at the Y as well as the variety of classes available.
My son had a great time most days. He especially loved the splash pad and Gaga ball!
The offerings are diverse and interesting
I love the welcoming staff and wonderful, safe environment. I take my clients to walk the track, and we love watching basketball or Pickleball being played downstairs.
A great community feel for families and individuals. So much variety is offered. I am impressed. YMCA is very important and incredible resource for people in and around Franklin.
Camp
The ease of drop off and pick up was very nice. My daughter also enjoyed the wide range of activities.
What my family liked about your summer camp was that my daughter felt comfortable with everyone and enjoyed attending for two years. My daughter is very shy and does not like to do unfamiliar things, such as joining clubs, sports or camps. She was very upset when we signed her up, without discussing it with her first. After just the first day, she loved it and she loved everyone there. It takes time for her to open up to people and the camp counselors/directors were patient and worked at it every day. She is now open to trying new things, if I think she will like it. This is the first year, she signed up for a club at school (and loves it).
I really like the Y culture and the people it attracts
Good selection of classes
We love camp silver lake and the field trips offered at wigi
Lap swim is my exercise of choice. I have been swimming at the Y since 7/2015. Honestly, I have not tried other activities.
Kids loved the councelors
