Everything
I like the YMCA. It would be nice of it opened earlier or stayed open later at night. We do enjoy the Y.
Mel Korum YMCA is a great place especially for seniors. Friendly staff, great classes, clean facility and just plain fun.
Friendly people and staf
If I may start with appreciation for all of the staff that make each visit a great experience. Many things they do are behind the scenes, unnoticed and probably under appreciated. The aquatics schedules are difficult to decipher and vary between web version, weekly download version and the posted version at the location. I've seen improvements on this next topic already but would lime to see more staff monitor the locker rooms and changing areas. I continue to see males in the female areas with their phones out and positioned in a way to video or photograph my child. I've raised the concern at the time with staff who promptly responded. I feel there needs to be more frequent monitoring of these areas to keep other members and dependents safe. The changing rooms could use more upkeep and tending. Any way we can attach the stools to the changing rooms? For some reason folks aren't using the provided benches near the lockers and I'm having to relocate the stools from the changing areas back to the changing areas. Again I'm seeing improvement around cleanliness. One example, providing tissues in the locker rooms has reduced the amount of bogeys wiped on the walls of the changing rooms. Kudos to the cleaning staff for tending the affected walls. Kudos to the maintenance staff for quickly tending to anything that isn't working correctly. Showers not turning off among many other things they keep operational without members realizing their hard work.
A lot of exercise machines to choose from. Clean a nd friendly atmosphere.
Clean, friendly, good hours, nice equipment and variety of equipment.
I appreciate how the instructors won’t pass a student until they are absolutely ready. Also, I think the staff does a good job handling difficult parents, like myself occasionally. We have been members for over a year now and I can see how working in the aquatics department can be tricky, but they do a good job. My kids love coming here to swim.
Clean, free as a benefit to my healthcare insurance. Pleasant staff and other members
I would recommend the Y because of your instructors. I push myself seven days a week, and Tara Steckler had me sore from head to toe after her Friday muscle toning class. She truly has a gift for motivating members and leading challenging classes with a variety of moves that target all muscle groups, catering to beginners through advanced levels. Anyone can take her class, regardless of their level, and they’ll soon find themselves progressing in both strength and stamina.
My attendance at the Y varies due to travel and lately health issues. The instructional pool
is the most important to us. It was recommended to me many years ago by the doctor
helping me with back issues. I really appreciate it when the pool is warm. When it's just been
filled it's too cold for my old bones (and others too). I appreciate having the morning hours without young children. I love little kids, however; they can become unintentionally a trip hazard.
Thanks for asking. It's good to be back after a couple months away due to a sinus problem.
Convenience of being close to home, nice pools and hottub
I've not been to any type of YMCA, this is my first experience, and I must say this is very impressive. The staff, wow, they are wonderful, the facility itself is very clean, I really enjoy being here. A HUGE THANK YOU TO THE MEL KORUM FAMILY for this facility. Sincerely Don Last name removed.
Nice facilities and equipment. Love the age your children have to be to workout upstairs! Nice staff!
All the Staff are very friendly. They greet you when you come in and leave. The staff is also very knowledgeable and helpful. They give you positive encouragement. When you are taking a class, the stall also looks out for your safety, as well as, your well being. The "Y" is just such a friendly, supportive, and encouraging place to exercise.
Great environment! I love they have scriptures posted and the backer of spiritual vitamins.

It’s Christian oriented. There’s Bible verses everywhere and my kids love it. Also it’s a great place for me to workout because of the child watch program
