Kiddo loves it
2nd year doing this. New people, same experience. I completely trust the staff caring for my son. When I ask how his day was after pickup, he usually shares something about YMCA after school rather than the school hours. So it's nice to know he is being active and having fun.
My son has attended the YMCA After School program at Laurel Park Elementary School for over 4 years now. He absolutely loves the counselors and atmosphere, and has had a wonderful experience overall. Thank you to all, and good luck to Ms. Colleen on her next chapter! We willl miss you!
My son loves it
Kids are well cared for and engaged in fun activities.
Front desk personnel are all very friendly and helpful.  
And I liked the caliber of group class instructors.
location, cleanliness, class variety, pool, friendliness of workers
I love the Kraft YMCA - everything about it! The classes, the facility, the staff, the programs - it's all fantastic!
I wish we had an indoor (or domed) pool for year round swimming. Can we make that a priority?
Love the staff and convenience of the location! A few suggestions that would improve my experience would be to start the afternoon childcare hours earlier …sometimes I can’t make it in the morning but 4:45 is late for my crew- I loved when the childcare opened at 4:15 but 3:30 would be perfect!
Also since the reorganization of the cardio balcony, it could use more sets of lighter dumbbells (10s, 12s and 15s) there seems to be only one set of each size and on busy days it can be hard to find what we need. The very heavy dumbbells mostly sit untouched in that area.
The kid zone is fantastic!
Good basquetbol

Front desk staff are very friendly and helpful, the facility is very clean, and the class instructors are fabulous too!!
Awesome instructions
The continually updated facilities and helpful staff
The people and the instructors. The best fitness instructors are at the Taylor Y!
The staff are courteous & pretty responsive. 
The weight /strength areas have been upgraded & expanded so more can participate at the same time. 
I wish the rules against using cell phones on this floor were being enforced. It is ridiculous to have to wait on a machine because someone is occupying it using their cellphone. It is sad that people continue to ignore this rule & simple courtesy but the rule doesn’t exist if it isn’t ENFORCED vigorously & fairly. 
The staff is supper nice always helpful , I like the group classes and the different programs they have
Super friendly and helpful staff.
Friendly staff. Clean facility
The hours of availability and the classes that are offered.
I love the yoga and strength classes. I also like signing up in advance, knowing that you have a spot when you arrive.
Friendly staff; wide selection of weight machines although it's a bit frustrating when they keep being re-arranged; pool temp was perfect!
Aesthetically pleasing surroundings, good exercise facilities and equipment, friendly, helpful staff
I'm grateful to everyone who makes the YMCA possible. The staff is consistently warm and welcoming, the facility is clean and well maintained, and the atmosphere goes far beyond what any private gym can offer. The Taylor YMCA feels like home to me, is family oriented, inviting, and filled with a true sense of community.
I especially appreciate the thoughtfully designed spaces, from the women’s locker room exercise areas to the changing rooms, sauna, steam room, and the wide variety of programs available. One of the highlights of my day is picking the daily Bible verses wich does not only supports my relationship with God, but is a kind reminder of his voice and wisdom.
Thank you, YMCA, for creating a place where body, mind, and spirit are all nurtured. My gratitude is beyond words.:)
 
   
  
My child has always raved about the Y after school. She said, " I really likes that I can do crafts and play with my friends"
