What do you like about your Hal Welsh East Area Family YMCA experience?

It's the whole mission. Example: at my visit today, a child care provider was pushing a trolley -full of children around the facility. Two older women, broad smiles, waved and smiled to the kids. also an older member, I did the same. Passing the art rooms, is always a delight. Ran into my body builder son. I went to egym and NIa. I see how the Y tries to help us all feel safe and like we fit.. This is hard, hard work. Kudos to staff, who make it all happen.

I'm pretty sure that funding is always a problem, but hope the Y can keep programming strong, cleanliness high, and facility maintenance and renovation ongoing. (Gulped hard when I saw the major repair to pools in the past few weeks, thinking about the cost of that!).

What do you like about your Hal Welsh East Area Family YMCA experience?

It is a family. It feels safe. Many cardio machines and weight options, so there is no wait.
The classes are amazing, and the pool area is wonderful!

My only suggestion is for better cleaning of the equipment. The cardio and weight machines do not get wiped down by the staff on the lower parts (the patrons wipe down the parts we touch), resulting in a lot of gunk and rust. I believe this would result in the equipment lasting longer, as well as being much more pleasant to see, and much more hygienic.

I love this YMCA, and want to see it be the best it can be! ❤️

We love going to the Y. My husband and I go about 4 to 5 times a week, results we both have slimed down. Our Doctors appointments have all been great no problems. The staff are just wonderful, even met some friends at the Y. Yes we are big fans clean very nice equipment. We have no complaints at all!

The Fayetteville YMCA is always nice and clean, and the people who work there are very friendly. Always helping to make your experience is a good one!

My only complaint is that the showers in the ladies' locker room have very little pressure.
