Member Testimonials

I mainly use UMLY for the outdoor 50M pool which is great. I use West Chester for indoor swimming but the lap pool has very limited lap swimming during the COVID schedule so I have not been back there since the opening.

Great people doing a great job especially during challenging times

I like the tennis program and the group exercise classes.

Those who cannot wear masks while exercising should be sent to programs that do not require masks (outside, swimming, etc). Having them with others in the gym puts others at risk -- that is not appropriate or acceptable.

Love the tennis and Pickleball communities

People are fantastic, though the wellness center staff needs to bear down on people who do not wipe down equipment with sanitizer after use. I see a great deal of that going on despite all the signage.

I love the yoga!!

I use the gym and take group exercise. It's well managed, clean, people are nice.

We only participated in 1 week of Camp (Tracks and Trails), but my Son thoroughly enjoyed it and commented that he wished we had planned for more camp at the Y this summer. The Camp Team did an excellent job with organizing drop off and pick-ups as much as possible and my Son was engaged during the day with the activities he participated in. The Covid safety measure put in place were far better than the other camp my Son attended this Summer. Thanks!

I use it just for tennis mostly.

Pools and yoga

Love the Les Mills classes and the outdoor pools

Steve in wellness center, Paula and Joan Tobin, the amazing warmth, diligence, hospitality, and information.
My granddaughter is in summer camp and this summer has been an extraordinary experience, allowing her to interact with and learn from other children.

usually very happy with exercise facility

Pleasant staff

The pools and the cleanliness of the area.

My kids had great fund and also made tons of friends. The staff was very friendly and observant of all COVID protection measures.

Our two grandsons are attending camp together. One for the second time as a four year old and the other for the sixth time as a twelve year old. Both are having a great summer. Kudos to the Y for meeting the challenge during this difficult time to have camp and train your counsellors and other staff to effectivly adjust to the situation.......particularly during drop off and pick up.

Activities are being conducted safely and with a focus on the kids having fun! Great attitudes on the part of the counsellors and the staff.

Thanks!!

Great camp!

Given the uncertainty of the times and the extreme procedures needed to keep campers and counselors safe, we feel the Y has been extremely organized and well structured to handle the situation while still providing a fun filled day for the kids :)

Our Pathfinder loves the variety of activities. He especially loves swimming, playground, and CANOEING! Our Woodsy’s Pals camper loves swimming, dance parties, and the new friends she has made. This has been an extremely important summer for our children to socialize and interact with other children their age and Camp UMLY has delivered.

My 7 year old son is loving camp at UMLY! He especially loves the nature lessons and taking care of the animals. He's knows all of them by name. After several months of isolation at home with working parents being at the Y, outside, daily with other children is such a blessing.

Great job

Everything!!

Everything! Specially summer camp for the kids

Summer camp program

My boys love camp and love their counselors ! They’re young boys so they don’t say much but their smiles say it all :)

So family friendly. My kids loves summer camp.

Janelle Brandberg, the theater director at UMLY, is absolutely amazing. She creates an environment of learning and self expression that has been vital to my child's confidence and development.

The swim instructors are fantastic! I have watched my child develop basic skills thanks to these programs.

Summer camp is the BOMB! This is my son's second summer at Y-Camp and we are so happy with it. Our son always has fun and interesting stories and he is always exhausted when he comes home which tells me he is active and having fun.

The summer camp has been fantastic! They are still having fun and doing traditional camp experiences while maintains safety stamdards.
