Location…staff….good service….up. to date equipment
It’s important to know I’m answering this survey as a senior person and through the lens of the ForeverWell program.
Virtual presentations commencing in March 2020, were and continue to be my connection to the Y. Prior to that date, it was the public gatherings provided by Elena Dinkin that were unique to the Y.
Now, with vaccinations and a cautious and safer return to in-person activities, Elena continues to be the key to my continuous membership. Honestly, without Elena or someone as capable and caring as she, I would have kept my $30/month dues in my bank account and continued to take advantage of a Silver Sneakers Program paid by my health insurance.
Of course, I enjoy the workout equipment and the able assistance of wellness staff and personal trainers.
Have no doubt, many of we seniors (on fixed incomes) remained with the Y when dues were imposed because of the opportunities of the ForeverWell program and specifically Elena Dinkins!
Variety

TheYMCA has a wide variety of activities- you can exercise, dance, swim, etc. And take cooking classes and take bus tours, etc. All helping to create a community that makes you feel you belong - you want to go and be involved and be a part of this great organization.
Convenient
Friendliness of staff
Its has given my family a oppurtunity be apart of activities that are mental, physical and financally affortable. The YMCA give us a full circle village mentality experience!!!
Good equipment
Great instructors and a variety of programs to attend.
The facility is very clean ,well equipped, with friendly helpful staff. fortunately because of the pandemic social distancing is well accommodated. All the equipment is readily accessible with no waiting. Unfortunately this translates to fewer clients. There is little human to human interaction which negates one of the benefits of attending a larger facility. A very safe environment could easily accommodate twice the attendance.

Lap pool swimming best place and lifeguards are super
So many activities to select. It is nice for those who aren't active. Gives them a chance to get out and enjoy themselves with others.
The best class I enjoy is Jihon's class on Monday morning. I think she is a great instructor and is favored by many. her classes are always full at 10:45.
I like the way you have responded during the Covid situation by allowing reasonable mask wearing requirements. People who attend the Y are some of the best people around. Staff is always helpful. great variety of programs and activities to suit everybody.
Exercises for seniors, game day, special activities every Friday and the people that worked there especially Elena Dinkin.
I like the variety and the people and instructors I have met. It's been a lot of fun finding what works for me. I do wish there were more offerings, though, so classes don't fill up too fast to ever get in.
