I love the Y It offers a wide variety of healthy activities and in Salem has a great level of cultural diversity
The curriculum was great. Staff was friendly and most important they focused on the students and not on devices or chatting. We only had three classes due to late sign up and can’t wait to come back!
We loved parent/child gymnastics at Beverly, however during the Summer it was difficult to keep the younger children out of the way of all of the girls and boys in the Summer camps ! They would often run straight through the areas the littlest ones were in and use the equipment the children were being told to stay off of even if it wasn’t something their camp was currently working with. I just hope that maybe there could be a more organized or designated path to allow all camps access to the opposite side of the gym without cutting straight through the little kids. My daughter was run into by a younger girl about 12 years old and while no harm no foul accidents happened— the older girl had cut straight through the area that the teacher had told us to be in with our own children. We loved our experience overall and will be back !
I love that everyone is encouraged to play because it is community-based. It’s a great place to learn more about a sport ♥️
