Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

Paul's kickboxing crew is expanding because of how great he is. I honestly get upset when I'm not able to get to his classes because of other events getting in the way (personal or swim meets). We have a diverse group of regulars who have formed our own little Y family and he is at the heart of it all. 100% promoting the Y mission.

Let's also be honest for those who are reading this and know me.... I'm not the easiest person and he deals with all of my nonsense and gives it right back. He's deserves gold medal for that alone :)

What do you like about our program and activities?

I've shared before in our leadership meetings how appreciative I am not only as an employee but also as a mom who watching her child grow because of the Y's influence. Last week, Jonathan had his first experience as CIT.

Day 1: J: I don't know how you do this all day. These kids just don't listen."
Day 2: J: "Today was a little bit better, but they still don't listen."
Day3: J: "Can I wear your staff shirt? They (campers) need to know I'm a counselor. A: Nope, your not on payroll, but your can wear Project Y shirt. End of the day- "Today was a good day."
Day4: J: Long pool story but basically he was wanted by the campers to play.
Day 5: J: "Guess what? I got dunked by 2 campers of the week" A: "What's that tell you?" J: "The kids like me." A: Do you think you'll apply next summer to be an actual counselor? J: Oh, Absolutely."

Week 2 is in full effect with a new group of kids and he was given a tie dyed "staff" shirt by another counselor. The highlight of the week (so far).

To see him so proud to be "working" and having younger children looking up and responding to him, is a proud mom moment. Thank you to Jimmy, Kenzie and the rest of the camp staff for giving him this opportunity to grow and me the "proud mom" moment.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

I have been recommending the Y because I won't do gyms and I can find classes that I am emotionally comfortable in.

Every single person on staff that my son has worked with this past year has been dedicated and engaging. He loves the days he has swim class and feels so at ease when he’s there.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

I like how many classes are offered, the variety, and how many machines are offered. I do wish there were more classes after 5pm, as i work full time 9-5pm and cant attend classes unless they are between 6pm-9pm. I also wish there were more weekend classes. I love that I can visit different YMCAs when I travel too.

I especially love the HIIT and balance board classes with William.

I love the extra activities they do during the school year. Swim, gymnastics, yoga, sports and STEM were all big talking points after school. I also love all the art projects Alden has taken home this year!

What do you like about our program and activities?

We love the variety of everything offered. My daughter is 4 and she’s been with the early learning center at Sterling since she was 6 months old. Every year has been such a wonderful experience for her. Ms. Elizabeth & Ms. Mari are her teachers this year and it’s just been such a delight for not only my daughter but myself. The comfort of knowing my daughter is in such good hands during the day is so important. Thank you so much for everything

What do you like about our program and activities?

There are a lot of different activities the kids can do throughout the day. There seems to be enough staff to cover the number of kids well, and our camper comes home worn out but happy by the end of the day. It's a great alternative to sitting around in the house all summer! This has been a life-saver! :)
