Member Testimonials
It is a lovely new building, spacious, bright, clean, and open. It offers a wide array of exercise equipment, large indoor pool, a large variety of programs (at no extra cost), etc. I also like that the membership is varied with people of all ages so whether you are a youth, middle aged or a senior you fit in. 😀
It’s so nice to be able to take care of myself while knowing my kids aren’t far away and are having fun too. The kids club is a lifesaver for my sanity. :)
It's an extremely spacious, clean, and extremely welcoming facility. The atmosphere, especially on the second floor gym, is amazing. The large windows allowing all that sunlight in makes you feel energized and isn't dreary like most gyms. I do have some suggestions/request though, which a suggestion box would also be nice. As for the upstairs gym I would love it if you could add some arc trainer machines for those of us who are dealing with knee injuries. Elliptical machines aren't too great for your joints.
Also a small low climbing bouldering wall would be an amazing addition to the facility, maybe even outside? No high walls, ropes, or harnesses are needed for "bouldering" style climbing, all you need is just a quick orientation. I am a seasoned climber and could get you in touch with the right professionals to make it happen. Also climbing is one of the quickest growing sports in America right now so I'm sure a lot of your younger aged(14-30) members would probably be excited for such an addition. Thanks for having such a great facility.
It’s a welcoming friendly place. And I have fun there
Beautiful, light-filled, state-of-the-art facility. Warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The building is so inviting. The classes that we are taking are wonderful. Full of vibrant happy people. Glad we joined.

The Y in Gloucester is the BEST!

It's beautiful. And functional.
One strong recommendation is that all the basketball hoops should be raised to 10' prior to the daily lunch men's basketball run.
Great staff. Good programs classes
My wife & I cannot be happier the overall experience at the Rockport after school program. Jess and the whole staff are excellent! So engaging and fun for our 2nd grader who loves it. This is her third yr in the program, and our 5 year old will be attending the program when she starts kindergarten in the fall.
It's a very nice facility with a lot to offer it's members.
Lots of classes in a brand new facility!
Staff is super friendly. The equipment and facility are maintained and kept clean. The open concept with space and the numerous windows creates a welcoming environment. You never feel crowded even when it’s busy. Lastly, the machines are new and in good working order .
Fun, flexible, good staff.
The stretch class I attended last Wednesday was great.
The instructors are great and my kids have really enjoyed learning how to swim.
It is a very beautiful and clean facility with some great programs.
Great facility, great teachers, wonderful resource for the community.
The staff is amazing and super engaged! My child loves attending the after school program and even requests to go when I'm able to pick her up from school at normal release time!
Great staff, facility and program! Thank you!
The staff that has made it such a wonderful experience. As you know it's been such a challenging time! And so we want to extend a huge thank you to the staff that has stayed with the kids & infants throughout!!!!
We are happy for the experience that the kids get with the 'extra cirriculars like swimming and basketball, gymnastics and time outside.
The vacation program at West Parrish was amazing! My child actually did activities and was excited to tell me about her day. I was amazed to open her backpack at the end of the day and see her pulling out projects that she did, huge difference from the last vacation program she did elsewhere.
Best Aquatics Program ever!
The program offers a lot of options for water classes at various points of the day. The class sizes are manageable and give us plenty of space to work out. The facility is clean and well tended to and the staff is very helpful. The instructor for the classes I take, which are 3 different water classes,is Scott and he puts together a great exercise routine which makes it fun and great exercise.
Keep hiring instructors Like Justin, Janelle and Michael.
There are a large variety of services at an affordable price. Hopefully, something for everyone.

Cleanliness and variety of classes. Great pool.
