Swimming
I belong to the Men’s Fitness Center and swim laps every morning.
I’m impressed with the remodeling you’ve done in the Fitness Center and really appreciate having the free towel service.
The pool, of course, is one of the best in town, and while initially worried about losing the online reservation system and fearing there wouldn’t be available lanes when I showed up, turns out not to be a problem at all, and not having to decide on a time a week in advance is also a lot nicer.
I love everything about the YMCA, including the people that work there and that I've met there. It is a really great community of people who want to live healthier lives.
I been with you guys for a couple of years. And I wanna think I don't like is the music. Other and that everything's fine.
Good gym with all needed equipment. Need to add mirrors on the walls with the dead lift platforms though. They're helpful for maintaining form
I really like the lane reservation process for the swimming pool. I hope you will continue this after pandemic restrictions ease. Nothing is more disappointing to go to the trouble to get to the YMCA and undress and shower then find out that there are no lanes available. I would suggest that 45 minute slots are sufficient for just about everyone; eliminating the 15 minute down time would increase the number of swimming reservations you could accommodate each day.
Thanks.
I liked the group fitness classes. Sad when covid changed them.
The Y is good for me and good for others.
Child care watch is amazing.
Joint water exercises.
We use the pool. We partisipate in the Aqua-joints class. It has been very helpful for my knee replacement and for loosing weight.
You have cleaned the place up nicely!
Being able to reserve a swimmingly lain
Lap swim
I usually just use the pool
I guess somehow making more times available for lap swimming
I live in Council Bluffs and frequent the Charles E. Lakin YMCA, where I'm on the local advisory board. I enjoy occasionally coming to the downtown Y. It's different, but in a good way, a nice old building with a cool feel and good workout and cardio area. Haven't done yoga there in a while, but loved the classes I took there.
I dont know anything about programming, but the strength room and pool are top notch
Not in any , I jus work out there but I really like the private women’s area
I love the atmosphere, the equipment is what I need and more and the people I encounter are very nice and staff is helpful!

It is hard to answer that question currently, due to the covid restrictions. However, I can say that the staff are friendly, professional and efficient.
We Liked the weight room
Everything its the best thi g going g
the swim class my daughter is in is great. she's still terrified of water and won't try everything but it's baby steps
Enjoy class
I like that you let the treatment center for drug and alcohol rehabilitation come and use the facilities everyday. And when I graduated you gave me a scholarshipped rate to join. You as an organization and the people who work there were a major factor in me staying sober and healthy. It's been a year since the pandemic and a little longer since I've been to the gym, it's so good to be back and with the new renovations it's a fantastic place to be. The people I used to see welcomed me back and it's a place where I feel I belong. Thank you for everything.

The classes the swims and the new fitness center.
Could we have a swim suit dryer either upstairs or in the mens fitness cente r
Thanks
