Member Testimonials
We like the art and STEM activities, the emphasis on reading and physical movement.
The counselors are more involved with the kids than previous camps we have attended and hold high behavior standards.
The challenge is the volume. There are a lot of kids in the pool and gym which can be over stimulating, but the Y is accommodating to wearing earplugs.
Nice staff, wonderful coaches, fun experience for my child.
The pool schedule is great, as there are always several lap lanes open. The locker rooms are very spacious....however, the lockers themselves are really old and need replacing ! !
My kids loved the swimming activities!
Amount of physical activity and outside time!
Fun Silver Sneakers
Water aerobics.
I love the Silver Sneakers classes. And the staff at the Southwest YMCA is the best!
The pool was great for my kids and myself. I have been having an issue with your phone this week though. I am trying to reach someone in aquatics to discuss level 6 for my kids.
My son loved swimming lessons this summer. The class size was small, allowing him to really build his skills and gain confidence. We plan to sign him up for another session.
Love the Southwest Y!
Pool, childwatch, weight room
We have appreciated the diverse themes and activities each week. Our son always comes home talking about how fun of a day he had at camp.
That they are community based for everyone from one year old kids to the elderly. Feels like a big family. Thanks!
Programs and activities are well planned and executed. My kiddo had so much fun swimming, going to the library, playing games, everything she did was a blast! She came home tired and hungry because she was active and engaged all day. The one Monday that she woke up saying she didn't want to go to camp (Mondays are hard!) She came home asking if she could go back the next day. Organization and communication were top notch. Affordability is another bonus. We will definitely be back next year.
Kudos to Charissa, Pete and the YMCA Southwest staff! To say they do excellent work is an understatement!
The activities and before and after care.
So far we love it - always keeping them busy and active. Something new through out the week to
Keep them from Being bored. Wonderful program!
This year camp seems to be more structured with different types of activities that are more creative and throughout than previous years. I am liking how Carissa is handling her team and the kids.
Excellent instructors and friendly environment.
Our daughter loves to swim and she is enjoying this program very much.
My son Cooper loved it!
I like the ease and accessibility of the program.
Fun and easy to work with. Great for new introduction into sports
Pool
There is such a wide variety of activities from which to choose. I would have to spend nearly every day there to try out all of them.
They are very family friendly. For the most part you have almost any activity or class available to partake in. Priced just right!
The staff members are always friendly and helpful. The aquasize classes are great and I always learn a lot. The pool is the only thing I use as I am unable to work out on the equipment. It is overly busy during the weekdays. Weekends are quieter for adults.
Enjoy book club.
Knowledgeable people working for you,that knows about older peoples health problems and want to help,everyone seems happy to be there working,always smiling.

Great communication and my daughter has really enjoyed all the activities!
