Team is great
Cleanliness, access to machines…lots of Pickleball time!
I needed help for son and I to become member, the Y was able to help us do that by providing a little financial help with a discounted membership, due to being a single father of 9 year old boy, and we are now enjoying the great amenities the Y has for my son and I. Also I was able to sing my son up for summer camp, God is Great!!, I will be forever grateful to the Y.
Everyone that I have talked to at the Ellicott City Y, are just great!! Helpful and kind. Thank Ellicott City Y for all you have done for my son and I, and for what you do for the community.
Thank you,

Covid procedures in place and I felt comfortable exercising. Constant cleaning going on in the

Wonderful facility, clean, good class offerings.
Hi,
I love the YMCA but I have a few concerns. I wish the pool was cleaner and the women's changing room was neater. The pool is sometimes cloudy, smells of chlorine, the metal rail part near the deck is brown and it has floaters. I wonder If there was a bottle of disinfectant in the showers folks would spray the shower down after they are finished. It would be cleaner then. My biggest wish is there was an aqua group class on the weekend.
Thank you.
The family atmosphere is so important to me.
The staff is always so helpful and friendly.

I have made many friends in the various programs I have enjoyed at the Dancel Y. We do things together outside of the Y, so it is a great way to bring people together. The staff is friendly and encouraging.
