Great facility
My daughter loves her swimming coach. She is not afraid of water any more. She overcame her fear of water with the help with wonderful teacher. Thank you, Salem YMCA Swimming Program team.
It's a great facility and it's never too busy. The equipment is always clean and in good condition. There are many options in the gym and I never have to wait to use any equipment or ask for assistance.
It's a great Y!!!!!!!!
Staff, facilities
it's fun to stay at the YMCA!
While it's difficult to park at Salem Y, it's an easy walk for a resident. Why not walk and stretch prior to exercise? Lots of treadmills, bikes, other machines and weights.
very good and accommodating instructors. Clean facility. Overall the Y very good!
The instructors are fantastic!
Great program and coach
Gina Grinarml is an amazing coach for young people. The email system is abysmal for the Sharks and communication is somewhat poor due to the barrage of emails that don't pertain to everyone.
Friendly staff

Lots of art and free exploratory time, they get outside as much as possible, great teachers
Our daughter is loving her experience at the Y. Very little room for improvement and I don't know what control you have over the snack offerings but that is one of the few things she complains about. ;-)
There is so much to do and going to different parts of the building to do different activities is a plus. Especially with the weather we have in New England. Gives the children a place to.get out their
Energy in a safe way.
