Member Testimonials
The staff is great and the facility is always clean and well kept!
I love all of the options the Y offers. The Y has a great variety of weight and cardio machines, classes, the pool, the track and the 24/7 room. The staff is so friendly and helpful, as well. I think the Y is also very reasonably priced. I love my Y family.

Kind and courteous staff, nice free weight section, nice machines, the pool and hot tub are good. I enjoy going there.
Very well run organization and a pillar of our community. Great job!
The friendly workers! How clean the entire Y is from the workout area to the locker rooms.
I enjoy the early morning openings at 5am. Always greeted with a Good Morning by Name once they get to know you. The morning time has many of the same thinking, who enjoy this time ethier before work or to just get there day started. The pool is my place to workout. One can schedule ones lap time easily online. There are also many classes available through out the day for all ages. I can say I have not checked out the many other area's but one can see and hear in the locker room that freinds enjoyed there morning workouts. I know this has to be true all through out the day as well.
Thanks for building such a nice place where people can come to workout and meet others as well.
The Dow Area YMCA has an exceptional selection of equipment in both weight rooms and the indoor track is a wonderful feature for runners to get their miles in during icy conditions!
The staff is always friendly, the facility clean, and the location is super convenient!
I love that my membership dues not only support the things I primarily use the Y for but also so many community programs benefiting all age groups.

This facility has something for everyone!
One thing that needs to improve is the lack of communication among the levels of staff, and the staff’s neglect to inform patrons. When an instructor doesn’t show up, it would be wise to inform one another of the issue. Perhaps a message board to keep everyone on track would help. Also it would be nice if staff were better acquainted with one another. If I ask about a class or instructor I rarely get feedback that is informative. Those that work there should know the programs.
