Member Testimonials
I am happy to know that every morning my child is happy to go to the YMCA summer program. He loves it because it keeps him busy with all kind of activities. He starts to feel sad that only one week is left of the 5 weeks program.
Thank you for offering us this summer program for our children. Thank you to all YMCA summer program team and bus transportation.
The stuff members!
Great services, staff, and good price
Every staff member I've interacted with has been welcoming, helpful and personable. The YMCA offers a variety of classes, and the facility is clean.
The mix of academics and camp activities is great.
The instructors are phenomenal
Everything about this place is great. The yoga studios are great (as are the teachers, especially Paris), the changing rooms are super clean, the staff is so friendly and helpful. I especially appreciate that this Y has a "growth" strategy and is always trying new ideas and programs to meet members' (and future members') interests. The ceramics classes are a bit pricey, but I do hope to try them at some point. And while it's inconvenient that the weight room and cardio equipment are temporarily separately located right now, I believe it's worth it to have a good playground available for the kids on the roof. Great forward thinking on the part of management.
Harbor Quest has remained my daughter’s favorite camp for the second year running. She loves archery, low ropes, the ocean play / kayaking, and friends at camp. I love that kids get Summer Eats and I don’t have to pack lunch every day, and the staff are so caring and engaging with the kids. We’ll be back next year!
My child appreciates the structure and routine, and likes choosing the camp activities.
I love that it’s continued learning and that Owen just thinks it’s an extension of school. He has had nothing but good things to say about the program and the staff are extremely nice.
My son is having a great time at camp.
