Member Testimonials
The Tom Taylor YMCA is the nicest athletic facility of its type. It is better than all the high-priced athletic clubs I have joined in major cities around the U.S. We are blessed to have it in our community.
Courtesy, kindness.
The YMCA has amazing activities during camp and wonderful staff! The sports they offer are great, swim classes are awesome! My son absolutely loves going to the Y!
Such a positive experience for my girls! They absolutely loved Day Camp and would ask to stay as late as possible. We love our local YMCA.
like about = clean facility and staff is great
could improve = baby changing stations in family changing rooms please!
The camp staff are so caring, compassionate, and attentive to the needs of my child. They do everything in their power to help her have a great camp experience.
We are currently using the y to mainly swim. I have a 7 yr old and a 15 yr old girls granddaughter's that I am raising.
I would like to take some of the classes for older adults because I am 58 and have been living with Parkinson's for 14 years, but, there is nothing for the girls to do at the time of the classes. The kids gym and play area are reserved for day camp all day everyday.
It just seems like we can't all get into classes at the same time which would mean multiple trips
There is nothing for my 5'2" 109lb 15 yr old to do except play drop in volleyball or basketball with grown men twice her size and she gets hurt every time. This last injury was a dislocated thumb.
But, summer is nearly over and things will change with the beginning of school.
However we really do like going to the Y. Everyone is so kind and helpful.
Especially a man named Brian who is a maintenance man at the Tom Taylor facility. He saw Sophia watching the volleyball and saw that she was shy and uncomfortable and took her over and introduced her to some of the other players.
Another time when we were there on Saturday, he saw that Savannah was trying to play basketball and the hoop was too high and he to lowered it for her.
I see him walking around as he's doing his job and watching what people are doing and jumping in and making a difference when he can.

like about = 3 Barre classes this week were great
could improve = more individual light, med & heavy weights. Many classes suggest 6 weights 1) x 30 = 180, 2) 70-80 = 450-480, sometimes 3 classes use these and over 700-800 weights are needed.
like about = Brian's printmaking class is PHENOMENAL!

Everything.....
It was great
The place is exceptionally clean. Many amenities and so pleasant to be in. Navigating is easy. Plenty of signs and markers. Every staff member I’ve encountered has been helpful and nice. Had I known it was so awesome I would have joined sooner. Lots of equipment choices and I love the walking track. Big thanks to all of the donors that made it available to everyone.

My daughter is in level 3 swimming classes M-Th. Her teacher, Sandi, is phenomenal! She's attentive and encouraging but has high expectations and makes the kids want to succeed. My daughter is thriving under her instruction. Give her a raise! 😁
Getting into the swim lessons it complicated due to the web site. The staff have been very helpful trying to make it work for my family and I am grateful. Thank you
Very friendly staff. Clean environment. Such great equipment.
Fantastic staff and classes!
Great community asset.
I love the feeling I get when i walk through the front door, especially when I am greeted by a big dog! It is so friendly and comfortable. I love all my fellow mer-peeps! Joanne (Bonnie Bubbles) Jones
I love the Y and attend your senior classes.
Summer parking is bad!!!
I would love an in between time for silver fit classes - 8:30 quite early for me - 10:45 quite late. But I know you have so much going on.
On general I am pleased with the YMCA, although I have only used the gym and saunas
Very welcoming, to everyone.

Clean, friendly, child watch program
