Member Testimonials
The administrative staff are incredibly patient and helpful. The facilities are great.
The booking system for the family pool is exasperating as many times registration is closed, but then theres no- one in the pool. Is there a way to check last minute availability?
Thx for all you do.
At the present I like the way the Y is being very careful during the COVID pandemic. I feel very safe both swimming and lifting weights in the fitness center. This is very important to me because I am 74 years old and am in a high-risk group for this virus
So happy to have the opportunity to swim laps during the pandemic. It is saving my life.
Everything - the weights, number of options for cardio work outs, the cleanliness, the trainers, the atmosphere. Favorite part of my day is spent at the Y.
We love the Y. Please open the stay and play on Sundays though, as it's one of the only times our kids get to safely see other kids in person during this period of all-virtual learning.
My favorite things at the Y are the water exercise classes- they’re great! The main problem now though are such restricted class sizes. They’re getting tougher and tougher to get into. A number of us have requested/ suggested that at least one more Lane is opened up during that 45 minutes Though- that would allow 4 more people in! And honestly sometimes not all the lanes even have swimmers in them - such a waste! Please consider that for us! Thanks!! Name removed
I feel safe at the Y during this pandemic. I feel that you have gone the extra mile. Like that you are taking temperature and requiring masks to be worn
I am overly cautious during this pandemic and you make me feel safe.
The efforts they are making to keep us safe are over and beyond! Loving the outdoor classes and pool opportunities! Keep up the good work! And as always your staff has been so friendly and helofuL!
Good facility, good equipment
Nice people
Seems clean and safe
Not crowded
Most people seem to follow saftey protocols
I am glad I can still swim even during the pandemic and I feel the staff are doing a good job of keeping everyone safe.
It is clean, friendly, and well run.
The Y meets my exercise needs. There’s a variety of classes and equipment. They stay par with the current exercise trends.
With my torn rotator cuff I am able to schedule a lane just for me and the water temperature is perfect.
Thank you.
The friendly staff and cleanliness of the facility. I love the group exercise classes!
I like the friendliness of the staff and the huge effort that the Y has made to meet the challenges of Covid-19, including making it possible for us old folks to have outdoor classes through the fall.
Its clean and safe environment.
Classes, equipment, facilities and people/staff
Staff has been very helpful to me, a newcomer. The building is bright and fresh looking. My membership fees are paid to a non profit so I know I'm supporting 'greater good'.
Friendliness. Cleanliness.
Childcare is amazing, pool availability is convenient and save. Love Y, the best family gym
Being able to use the facilities with a sense of security from the virus.
The staff are great, and I think the layout feels very safe right now.
The staff at your Y could not be more professional. They are wonderful ! The ladies locker room is so clean !! I go to many other YMCA's in Maryland, & I think that you have the cleanest. And last, I go to your Y to do lap swims in the main pool. The staff is wonderful and works hard to keep everything clean. I feel going to your Y in Towson is such a pleasure! Thank you very much for be so professional and nice.
Safe, convenient, friendly staff
The exercise equipment available is way beyond the needs of an 82 year old
I am so glad that the Orokawa Y has been able to resume operations and really appreciate the Outdoor activities -- I'm not yet comfortable spending time inside, but I know it's safe there, given all of the precautions -- thank you for all of the services you've provided to the community during these very challenging times.
I am so glad you re-opened the aquatic classes, and in a way that is safe and convenient. The only awkward thing is having registration start at midnight. Really?!
The programs that are offered are not any additional cost but included in the membership.
I like the freedom to choose any exercise equipment I want to work out on. I also love exercising in the pool. The Y have so many activities to participate in.

Friendly welcomes, the pool temp isn't cold, the windows and the sunshine coming in, @ the pool. Seeing friends !
