Member Testimonials
I like the staff and the lifeguards.
But I would like to have early afternoon back on the lap swimming schedule.
I like the cycling class. This is one of the mainstays of the downtown YMCA. The other programs are constantly changing, which is good. It's not always the same old programs day in and day out. I really enjoying having the pool open during the afternoon hours. Kudos to the executive director, Paul Russell, for acquiring the funding to make this happen. Miss Gray, the fitness director, also performs at the height of professionalism. She is driving force behind the member campaign funding this week. The downtown YMCA has a great staff, including Malissa at the front desk. She always makes people feel welcomoned and valued. Have you ever thought about a martial arts class? Something to consider. The YMCA feels like family. Thank you for the inviting, warm atmosphere.
I am in a wheelchair and use the pool to walk 1 mile 2x a week. The lifeguards are so helpful and the lift is very much needed. When the lift broke down they both helped me walk up the ramp and brought my wheelchair around. The lift was fixed by my next visit! I cannot say enough about the lifeguards..one in a million!
The yoga classes are good and like they start at 7:30 gives you time to get home from work, eat and go to class. Love the building and the staff is really nice..

The Downtown Y is a great place to work out and socialize with other people. We have been going there several times a week for four years now. Best staff ever! Thanks for a job well done.
group exercise classes during mid- dsu
The pool, when it's available. The new locker room. The very helpful front desk: Jared, Dewey, Laura, Ashley, Melissa, Serefina; the lifeguards, when they come. Especially Scooter.
Parking is almost trouble-free now.
Keep up the good work, and please reopen the pool in the early afternoon. Thank you.

I only use the pool and am very happy with it. I appreciate the variety of programs and activities offered to the community, even if I have not been able to use them.
Clean and friendly gym. Dewey at the front desk is amazing. As is the woman at the front desk.
