Member Testimonials
All the staff are very friendly and helpful.
I walked into to inquire about membership and was immediately provided a tour of the facility and all that WP YMCA has to offer. It was an easy sell - I signed right up! Staff is super friendly and helpful.
Good variety of classes, equipment kept in working order.
Equipment availability in weight room. More recently, the after hours access because it is not crowded.
Not too big, not too small. It’s a very family like atmosphere but has a lot to offer!
I love the aquatics director! There is a splash pad and outdoor playground for the little ones!
Great pool
I’ve been a member of the Y for many years and have enjoyed my time there.
The staff are always so welcoming and friendly. I like that is not overly crowded. I love that they offer childcare for my son.
Nice place!
I love this location. My friend Debbie Crittenden attends this location. I live in Williamsburg but really like the great Senior Group in NewportNews. I joined in Williamsburg. Hope to see you all again in Newport News.

Ability to take my health and hand, socializing with like-minded people, the friendly staff
Great classes, swimming year round now & family atmosphere.
I really liked the welcome that I received when I walked through the door. It made me feel as if I was the only member. As I scanned in, the woman at the desk immediately said Good morning First name removed. She was able to notice that I was not familiar with the site, she took her time and answered all of my questions!
This was my son’s first time staying anywhere overnight and if that he stayed a whole week with no phone calls home no cell phone, no electronics no nothing. He had a blast. He came home talking about it and he also said he was going back next year, the staff is so friendly and kind and I would recommend this 10 out of 10.
