What do you like about our program and activities?

Paul Gentile and Adam Travinski are amazing coaches. My son was nervous to play and they made him feel comfortable and helped bring up his confidence when it was low. They encouraged him, and he had a great season overall. I also appreciate Matt the director.

What do you like about our program and activities?

The teachers, staff and curriculum are great and our children genuinely enjoy attending. We note, however, that the three day schedule students miss out on several enrichments that make the Y daycare desirable (such as swimming and sports). Holidays and teacher development days also often land on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, causing the schedule to shorten to two-day weeks on many occasions. Considering substantial tuition increases each year, in these instances, offering a Tuesday or Thursday at no extra cost would be appreciated, allowing our children to have the full three day week paid for and partake in an enrichment they usually miss. Thanks.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

My family and I love the Y. We do it all (gym, classes, after school programs, camps, etc) and are so grateful that we have a safe, welcoming, positive environment in the community to raise our kids with healthy habits and occupations. Most recently, we went to the school vacation week events and had the best time doing STEAM activities with Y staff. I'm looking forward to getting my family into more Y based activities in the future.
Thank you for all that you do for our community and my family!

What do you like about our program and activities?

I really appreciate the variety of activities they do in the classroom, as well as the physical activities included in the program. The classroom activities are engaging, creative, and support meaningful learning experiences. At the same time, the physical activities help students stay active, focused, and energized. It’s great to see a balance that supports both academic growth and overall well-being.

Great facility, friendly staff! Just wish there were more group classes earlier in the morning and later in the evening, and a few more 45min options.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

Leslie at the front desk was more than accommodating, she was not only very helpful but made me feel comfortable to be at the wellness center again. I suffer from anxiety disorder and with making the decision on reactivating my membership she was welcoming friendly and the brightest light on the darkest days.
The YMCA is affordable with lots of amenities for all ages. They also have a plethora of wellness classes that are included in the membership and just overall a positive place to be
