Classes and instructors are great. You can use other Y's in the area. The price is right.
Clean and it offers so many options to get fit. Love the pool and that it has so many lap swim lanes.
Friendly, inclusive, good gym and programs
My guy absolutely loves going. I love that the morning program is helping him with reading. He loves that he gets to go to the YMCA and swim. I'm not sure what else he did besides swimming this year. I know last year they did a little play with the camp counselors etc. but he really enjoyed going.
The kids have a day packed with activities. The staff was enthusiastic. There was good communication. Swimming everyday. My kids had the best summer
Love the structure - love that my child received the reading help at Hannah and then also go to enjoy fun summer camp activities at the YMCA. She loved swimming every day!
I love the deep water aquatic classes!
I have deep concerns and frustrations about the learn to swim program.
The instructor is so patient with my son!
They are pretty well organized and my sons enjoys what has been offered.
Basketball has been amazing for my son! He looked forward to it every week!! Lamar was an outstanding coach!!!!
My child loved it ! thank you for making camp fun for her
The gymnastics coach, Lorelei, is why we love the program so much!! She remembers every single child’s name, she’s patient, encouraging and all around an amazing asset to the Beverly Y.
the instructors are so great, we are so happy to know them.
I believe Bea (Mia?) and Thomas are our main instructors but there are one or two others whose names I forget and they are also great.
Great staff, plenty of equipment.
There are usually enough machines so that there is not a long wait to use them. One problem is that often folks sit on the machines and use their cell phones. Maybe a few chairs around the edges and signs asking folks to use their phones on these chairs vs the machines would help.
Friendly and professional staff. Clean facility

Out of all the y's in the area I love yours the most.
It has something for everyone and is a first class organization that is very responsive to its members. It continuity tweaks the offerings to stay up to date and meet changing times and demands. .
The Y has everything I need and the people that work there are fantastic and know what they are doing
I love how much time the kids spend outside at Sterling Woods, and that they spend time in the real woods. There are lots of different activities (high ropes, low ropes, boating, STEAM, swimming EVERY day) that set Sterling Woods apart from other camps and even other Y camps in the area.
The staff also have very low turnover (lots of returning staff every summer), and they are excited to see returning kids year after year which helps so much with transitions.
Friendly staff and convenient hours
