My children always love all the activities that you guys do. I think that having Cody as an addition this year has been huge as he does have child psych backround and he is excellent at navigating conflict. I do think that some of the counselors need a little bit more training, on how to identify inappropriate behaviors, and how to deal with them In the moment. Jack the counselor will also be greatly missed!
I like the variety of activities. The kids are very active at camp.
Really great emphasis on being kind and helpful while also giving the kids a ton of options to get their crazies out. The staff is really supportive and got our kiddo to go from being terrified on boats to loving them!
Fantastic staff, incredible water park, and we love the classes our child is enrolled in. We wish there were more open gymnastics classes for toddlers
great staff, clean facility. love outdoor pool
Came to use water park. Wonderful!
Great place if you have children under 12.
The Y is a very welcoming place. They offer a great variety of classes incl7ding Yoga as well as cardio and strength. The price is great for all of the resources the Y provides!
I recommend the Y because it’s family-friendly, affordable, and has a lot of variety—fitness options for adults plus activities for kids. The kids club especially makes it easier for parents to get workouts in. One thing I think would make it even better is if kids club were available on Sundays too.
Great facility with updated gym equipment. Wonderful staff all around!
Many opportunities for healthy activities.
The Ipswich Y offers so many different options for fun and exercise!

Ipswich Facility has new equipment and updated regularly. Its clean, the staff is friendly and very helpful and I can use more than one facility on the north shore.
We love the outdoor pool and splash pad!
Friendly people; range of activities
Lamarr Walker and Bruce Peterson do an outstanding job of organizing the pickleball programs. They also solicit feedback and listen to our suggestions.
I do have two pet peeves.
One, the parking lot lines wore out a long time ago. Without painted arrows, people are driving the wrong way. This is very dangerous especially in the summer with a high pool attendance.
Two, the gym is used a lot. Can you make a better effort at cleaning the floor.
Thanks for all that you do. Mike
I like being surrounded by positive people lifting each other up and the Pickle Ball group I play with is a great group and Bruce is awesome!
My son has enjoyed the variety of activities. He likes the pool and splash pad, the different sports, and card games he's learned at camp.
A large variety of scheduled and open time programs designed to keep people moving and engaged in staying active and healthy. The staff are polite, professional and always available to answer questions. They show us the correct way to utilize the equipment and instruct in special classes. Just a great environment to participate in any program or activity you wish.
It supports healthy community and everyone is so welcoming and nice.
I greatly appreciate the up-to-date, well-maintained facilities. Staff are friendly and helpful, and that seems to rub off on all the members as well! And the Kids' Club is great for letting my 5yo stay meaningfully occupied while I work out or swim. I'm only sorry I didn't sign him up for the Y's camp this summer, but I will not make that mistake next year!
Not too busy. Good equipment.
