I really appreciate access to the childcare center. The caretakers there are wonderful--I see them really taking an interest in my son and going out of their way to help him develop and enjoy his time there. As a mother, it's truly priceless to know that my son is in good hands so that I can exercise and take a bit of time for my health. Thank you!

The Decatur YMCA is a great place for the entire family. My kids learned to swim through the excellent instruction and programs offered at the Decatur YMCA. They also played T-ball, baseball, basketball and soccer. They participated in summer camps and we loved how they were kept engaged with the activities offered. We consider the Decatur YMCA part of our family because it kept my entire family engaged with fun activities and also provided a great facility to stay physically fit. We love the Decatur YMCA!

Decatur-Dekalb YMCA has so many different classes and programs for all ages and fitness levels. The staff is always helpful and available for questions. Facility is clean and well kept.
