Clean and friendly environment!
Friendly, clean and nice classes.
The high ceilings give you a feeling of openness. The people are friendly and so are the staff. Great place to be.
We feel a great sense of belonging to the YMCA and trust the time we spend there to be safe, quality, and meaningful thanks to the way the organization is led and carries out daily tasks.
Seeing families having fun together
The cleanliness of the facility and the courteous staff. I like the option of summer camps for the kids.
Pool and showers are all I use. The pool is clear and an ok temp. Showers are always clean.
The Y is clean and bright! The Y does its best to offer a variety of sport and recreational opportunities to the Bay community. l have been a member for many years, starting at the old location on Columbus. My children loved the many sports and swimming classes at the Y.
The Y is fantastic resource for the greater good of our community, and as a resident of Bay City, I am thankful to have such a shining star in our backyard. It is a modern, safe, clean facility though and through, with friendly welcoming staff that enjoy their roles within the organization. It is a place for positivity, and it continues to expand with updates! Having young children in the Bay City Public School district allows for daycare programming both before and after school with transportation. That is a huge logistic win for working parents to have that feature available. Keep up the good work!
I like that the facility is always very clean and well managed. The classes I have attended have been challenging but not impossible. I especially like the walking track. Going round and round is not really my favorite thing, but it beats any other local options in the winter and keeps me going even in bad weather.

effort to improve the amenities.
I enjoy many aspects of what the Y has to offer. I play pickleball on a daily basis as well take classes that are offered at no extra charge. The staff are professional and friendly.
I enjoy the group exercise classes. The instructors are knowledgeable and show up for classes. So much better than any other fitness facility I have been a member of.
Great place to work out with my family
It’s a nice facility that is clean and full of everything you need. Great family atmosphere with friendly staff!
We love all the different kind of kids programs you offer, especially summer camp! Our kids always have a great time and look forward to coming back.
You also offer great workout classes . The facilities are always clean and the staff welcoming!
The Dow Y is clean which makes me feel good using the equipment. I like that they keep up the equipment so there are plenty of machines to use. I'm currently attending physical therapy at the Y which is convenient to come a little early or I can stay after to use the bike or arm machines. The staff is friendly and they keep us informed of what is being offered. I would say anyone looking for a fitness center they need to check out the Y.
