Since last year, I have seen great improvements in Y swimming pools. There are no more swimming lessons during normal lap swim hours. We the regular lap swimmers were no longer told to vacate the lane we are using to the swimming class without prior notice. Now I rarely have to wait for a good 10 minutes for my turn to enter the water. That was great. I applaud this for Y.
If there is anything that I need to identify for future improvement, I would say the shower heads can use a little upgrade. Some shower curtain may need to be little bigger to cover up. Also, if possible, if Y can provide opportunities for teen volunteers and earn service learning hours, it can get more adolescents involved.
Consistently a safe, clean place with great employees.
The folks at the door are so friendly especially Steve.
I have been attending Karen Brooks’ cardiodance class for over 20 years. She is the best
Friends , access to exercise. Friendly atmosphere . Acceptance of all.
Just about everything. I like the variety of people--all ages, all sizes, all shapes, all colors.
I like the space itself. I like the way women are nice to one another in the locker rooms I like the way I feel after I leave it.
Programs for kids
everything
My kids had a blast!
The Y is a family place. I love the diversity of the people who belong and work there. We love Stay and Play, the pool, the classes. It’s a happy place to be and great place stay healthy as a family.
Tilly has been great as a private swim instructor for my son. We really like the facility. Although, since my 12 year old is the size of an average 15 yr old and in better shape than most adults due to 7 intense dance classes/week at Peabody, it would seem that special dispensation could have been made for his workout options. That being said, he's going to turn 13 in February and that should help.
Great classes, great atmosphere, clean and helpful staff.
I love the facility and the staff--overall, it is an outstanding experience and has definitely improved my health. My only suggestion is to switch out the plastic straws; they are certainly not helping out environment and there are now so many great alternatives. Thanks for everything and have a HAPPY HOLIDAY!

Everything! It stays current with equipment and support. The group classes, small group trainings, and personal trainings are second to none. The availability of free (to members) classes and activities spans the life cycle and is readily available. The Y is clean, modern, and friendly.
My thing is the family pool. i go three times a week. If I miss a day I just don't feel right. The pool staff is the best. Kudos to them.
Great!
Excellent staff. Our son has autism and they are so understanding and caring. At stay and play they are always laughing at things he says even though his verbage is inappropriate at times. He loves going to the Y because this is the only plays where he has friends which are all employees of the Y. My son usually stops them in the middle of their tasks to ask them numerous questions which are repetitive and unrelated. They stop what they are doing and give him as much time as he needs.
I can't say enough about the employees who are so helpful and always smiling.
I take the aquatic arthritis class on Monday, Wednesday & Friday. I’ve taken this class for 16-17 years and have made wonderful friendships.
Everyone is helpful and nice.
