Member Testimonials
Kids enjoy the diversity of the sports program. Instructors work well with the kids.
My daughter is wrapping up her 4th summer attending the Sports camp at the Lakewood Y. She has a blast every summer, looks forward to seeing her camp friends, knows the "coaches" and the program keeps her active. My daughter is happy and camp is very affordable. We recommend the summer Sports Camp to everyone with elementary aged kiddos.
Flexible hours, variety of activities
The Lakewood YMCA has been fantastic in supporting my daughter through her first swimming experiences. Not everyone can provide support that toddler's require and that makes parents feel comfortable. Not only do I see my daughter learning the fundamentals of swimming, but her instructor has taken the time to ensure that she strengthens her listening skills. In addition, I think the YMCA is providing the best price in town for swimming. 100% would recommend to any parent considering starting their kids in swimming lessons.

Very friendly, fun environment for seniors. Great events - picnics, lunches, happy hours and I love chair yoga, and pickleball. I'm meeting a lot of people and I'm a big fan! The Lakewood YMCA is two minutes from home too -- no excuses!
Good basic equipment, good casual and supportive vibe, helpful staff
It is a very family-oriented facility.
I like all the lifting equipment thats available. I do wish there was someone I could consult with about training and dieting, but outside that the Y is great
The Lakewood YMCA has programs that appeal to every age group, including the toddler babysitting room to entertain the young ones while Mom and Dad workout, a variety of youth sports and fun evening events, great classes for young adults and plenty of variety for the senior group. Every year they add something new, which shows they listen to what their membership needs and wants. Kudos to a great management team and wonderful staff.
Silver Sneakers

My grandson said it’s because they are fun and he agreed with me that the coaches can make or break it… there has always been one coach that he really likes and responds to. We appreciate having a place that we feel is safe. Gives him something fun and constructive to do during the summer to get him off the couch and off his electronics and in a social setting to meet kids and make friends.
