Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

Close to home. 84 and need proper exercise. Might be an idea to have more social things for elderly...simple coffee meet or whatever. I for one am super- shy! Looking forward to trying the pool.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

It is a great community and good resources. In addition, the Y helps the community in so many ways. I see it as an organization much bigger than just a resource for good health

Love your Y, but was very disappointed when I took my grandchildren on Tuesday. We checked the web, it said the bounce house was operational, but when we got there with our 4 and 2 yo girls, it was closed. Please update the web!

What do you like about our program and activities?

My daughter attended 6 weeks of Children’s Island Day Camp. I liked the variety of activities each day but also the routine of starting the day at the flagpole, camp songs. Themes were great, changing each week. Everyday my daughter came home dirty - so lots of activities outside. She talked about wanting to go every year and becoming a counsellor (she is a seal pup this year). I felt communication by director was adequate, would have liked more pictures.
