What do you like about our programs and activities?

That there's so many to choose from. Because of the many weight machines, I've lost 20lbs before going on my vacation and it has helped me to walk on trails.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I wish I took advantage of more of them and plan to do so more in the future when I return. I do like that there are still racquetball courts available. I do mostly weights and cardio when I go. I greatly enjoy the steam and spa. It was somewhat dissapointing when they were in and out of service last year.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

i Like the small workout room, but should be more then one bench in the room when multiple people need to use the bench. also the orange matts look dirty and grundgy. if they are clean the aure sont look like it. new matts would-be a nice upgrade. there should be a limit on hownlong one person can use rhe machines.
But so far i enjoy going to the ymca to workout.

I just like the people who work there as the facilities are kept clean and I don't play pickle ball or basketball, but so what. The cleanliness of the facility brings me back.
