What do you like about our programs and activities?

Prime TIme. Love it but with the number of people in the winter the experience is diminished. I know of some seniors who stop coming because it is too crowded. Reservations ARE NOT the answer. Open up the gym. There is so much emphasis on pickleball and that is a very limited amount of players using a large space for a long time. There are more pickleball venues available then there have ever been in the county. Prime time with the large class size is only 1 hour 2 times a week (Tuesday and Thursday) . This class is the only exercise some seniors get for the whole week. The Monday and Friday classes are not that crowded.

Love Janet's Zumba class. Wish you could add a line dancing class. The staff at Palmer Ranch are great.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I love everything about the place, but it's mainly the people. The members and staff are great people. I wish they'd fix the men's sauna, & keep on top of the locker room better by cleaning it tore regularly especially the floors. Other than that, the place has a real sense of community and warmth.
