I did have some trouble with the EPact program when trying to enroll my granddaughter for theater camp. However, Ms. C. Sutton, whom I contacted was very helpful and emailed me the necessary forms. Thank you, Ms. Sutton/

The facility and the coaches are great as well as very professional. Especially the basketball coach, he's patient with each child and helps them learn not only skills but helps build self confidence.

I have been a member of the Y for many years and found that you offer a variety of classes that best fit my needs. I especially like the swimming classes for children because they are small and give individual attention to the children.

My family loves this location. Everyone is nice and friendly. They have convenient classes and workout equipment. The only thing I would change is the entrance. My son uses a wheelchair and it’s very difficult at times for him to get into the building. Other than that he loves that he can work out and not be stared at.

I have gone to this YMCA for some time and consider it my home pool. I've joined other health clubs but never felt the same about them. This Y works well for me. It's got good swim hours, is clean, and the employees are friendly.
