I like the structure. Your counselors are well trained and I feel secure with my children attending..I always post great things on social media about the Poole Y camps :)
My daughter enjoyed the camp
The people and classes.
I like that they go swimming, do crafts, dance and they keep the kids busy and moving all day.
Love our awesome counselors! Honestly everything about it.
Kids love it. The kids are also familiar with the Y and the family atmosphere.
The tour sealed the deal. It was nice to be able to see the campus and hear about what all they offer and the outreach they provide. It was easy to sign up online and then obtain cards in person.
Love the classes and instructors. Front desk staff always friendly and helpful. Just a nice environment!
Great group of folks to meet and play pickle ball.
The staff are truly unparalleled. They are so kind, friendly and genuinely happy to get to know you over time. We’ve been members for just over a year now and it really does feel like home! The front desk staff are amazing. We especially love Melissa and Kim. Robin is an amazing instructor. The staff in the kids care are absolutely above and beyond incredible. We know that our kids are loved and paid attention to while they’re there and that makes it so much easier to get in a good workout. We really like Audra, Ayesha, Kelci, Chrissy, Veronica, Michelle, Beverly, Mary Anna, and Mariah. So grateful for such a wonderful community place to be!
