That what you provide to society is a sense of providing a mechanism to foster well-being in a community no matter where you are located in the country. It is all very inclusive and deeply soul comforting for anyone. This effort tops any new seductive fitness facility that pops up in town nearby.
The Downtown YMCA is efficiently equipped. I usually go early evening, after work, which is peak time. I rarely wait for the weight machines and can always find an elliptical on the fourth floor. It is always clean, which should be a top priority in every gym. Staff is very friendly!
Who could ask for more?
