Member Testimonials
Friendly desk folks. Appreciate the walking track, love the lap pool & hot tub, steam room & sauna. Appreciate the swimsuit spinner to reduce the moisture before it goes back into my bag.
Enjoy that there is a Masters Swim group.
I also very much appreciated the class of Women on Weights that I attended prior to the pandemic. (I am sure I would never tried the free weights by myself!)
So, thanks!
My husband and I like getting out of the rain and cold during the winter months. I like that the YMCA is a very big facility so it’s never crowded when we go in the afternoon hours. Parking is never a problem close to the entrance. The main reason we use the YMCA is because the cost is covered by our Medicare advantage insurance, otherwise we couldn’t afford it.
The classes, jump start, chair yoga, shallow water aerobics
I like working out at the Mel Korum YMCA it is close to my home and all the employees are excellent and hard workers. I will recommend this YMCA to friends and family who like to work out

I just want to say how I appreciate the cleanliness of this facility!!!!
Been going here for many years. They repaint the walls constantly, some times to change color or after a damage repair both make sense. But many times I didn't see damage or repair or a dirty wall, it is just repainted. I used to see people cleaning floors or lockers in the changing room, I don't see that for more than a year. Just if someone has made a big mess like a spill or tacking in mud. I point out empty hand sanitizers often, so often I don't want to be that guy that always complains. But then I try to use them and they remain empty for a week or more at a time, and no they did not get refilled and then were emptied again. They don't get used up that fast, they can last more than a week, even with my heavy usage.
They are remodeling the gym and equipment now, that's great. If you do the showers again, the anti-slip flooring" grit in the floor paint" is fine also. But like I said I did see people cleaning in the showers and felt sorry for them scrubbing the textured floor surface in the drain ditch water collection system under the shower heads. You have to get in there with a hand brush to scrub it good. So it isn't cleaned as well as the floor and is pretty scummy now. It doesn't need the rough texture, it can be smooth paint. If your foot is in that drain you slipped on the flat floor and your falling down, you don't put you foot in it when showering. Smooth paint would make it easier to keep clean.
Workers are friendly. You have a lot of different equipment.
It's a great friendly place, from the class I'm taking to the administration people.
Love the friendly people. Love how clean and available all the equipment is. I do wish the registration for kids classes was a little more user friendly and easier to guarantee classes but been a member for over a decade not going anywhere.
The family vibe
The amazing pool and hot tub
The people are friendly, the place is clean and I’ve never had to wait for lane in the pool!
Inexpensive and good amenities.
i like the diversity atmosphere you portray and the religious diversity on your premises.
We have really enjoyed going to the Mel Korum YMCA. I initially only purchased the membership for my child so that he could attend swim lessons, but I have recently purchased a membership for myself as well. My only frustrations are that there are very limited hours for the kids free-swim time (it starts very late in the afternoon on weekdays--sometime between 6 and 7pm), so we are not able to go swimming very often. We wish that one of the swimming pools was available for kids free-swim time after school (4 pm.. or even later, but earlier than it is now because right now it is open too late for us to use it). We also wish that the pool table pool sticks were in better condition. My son loves getting to play pool. We often are not able to because the game room is typically very busy (it looks like it might be used for an afterschool program?), and there is no tip on the end of the one pool stick which makes it difficult to play. Maybe additional equipment is stored at the front to be checked out by people who will actually take care of it? I will have to ask, but if not, it would be a nice idea. The boys beginner gymnastics has also been a little frustrating. I see the girls groups getting so much practice in, whereas the boy group just quickly cycles through the skills with almost no practice time. How is my child supposed to advance like this? We had attended at least 3 sessions (not days but the several week-long sessions), but have taken a break as a result of feeling frustrated. The only other things I would add are that we would love the opportunity to sign up for a second swim lesson day (after everyone had gotten their first sign-up round opportunity) because we LOVE swim lessons and the more the merrier! We would also really love a kids martial arts option after school. We have really enjoyed the YMCA, and I would absolutely recommend it. These requests that I mentioned are the changes that would make it feel perfect for us.
Beautiful facility. Cheerful staff. Variety of activities. All ages included.
There is a wide range of equipments,very friendly and helpful staff
1) It has all the equipment I need.
2) Friendly and helpful crew
3) Close to my home
4) Exercise classes
All the employees are friendly and knowledgeable
Every part of the YMCA is clean and there are hand sanitizers and wipes everywhere.
They offer a nice arrangement of classes
I checked out other gyms before joining and there was no comparison in features offered
a place to walk that is out of the weather.
The amount of class options to explore with our littles to see what they are interested in. I like at this young of an age it’s not competitive but reporting the sport or art.
I feel registration is always stressful and classes fill up in a matter of minutes.
New weights
