What do you enjoy about your Y experience?

I have been going to the Y for several years and I have met friends there. I usually ride a stationary bike, but many of them need to be replaced. Before Covid I took a class which I really enjoyed.

What do you enjoy about your Y experience?

It's a great place to meet a wife. I met Carol Decker in 2007 when worked at the front desk. Her smile, friendly demeanor (and I admit, her incredible beauty) led me to ask her for a date. She accepted and with Jesus leading us, about a year later we married. In May of this year, we'll celebrate our 18th wedding anniversary, and although you may not believe it, but it's true none the less, we are still on our honeymoon. These past years have been the happiest years of my life, and I thank God for his presence in our relationship.
Side note: we both served on the Christian Emphasis Committee at Glenwood for quite a while under the leadership of Tammy Crawford and the support of Jim McElhenney (sp?).
I continue to attend Glenwood a couple times a week even though I'm no longer looking for a wife.

What do you enjoy about your Y experience?

I participate in Silver Sneakers with Curtis Jones. Curtis makes the class fun and challenges each participant to work at his or her own level. He explains each exercise fully and makes everyone feel welcome and comfortable.

Curtis is the reason many of us keep coming back every week. The Y is lucky to have him! That class and the friendliness of the members and staff are what I most enjoy about the Y.

What do you enjoy about your Y experience?

It's an important part of my life. The pool and hot tub and sauna keep my body limber and fit. As a senior citizen, that's very helpful. The warm water in the small pool is especially wonderful.
I appreciate the staff very much. They work hard to keep things flowing smoothly for us. And with all that they are still friendly. God bless them.
The Y is a great place to socialize and meet new people of all ages.. it's a stabilizing influence in today's nutty world. As long as the y is here, things must be ok!

What do you enjoy about your Y experience?

I feel comfortable at the Y. The staff is always welcoming and helpful. The main reason I go is for Curtis’s seniors sneakers classes. I feel that they’re perfect for me at my age and Curtis always makes the classes so fun. I go with my sister so it gives us some quality time together.I also enjoy the other women who go. We always have a good time. I feel the Y is a great place for families where I’ve also have gone to many of my grandson’s basketball games and I do recommend the Y to my friends.

What do you enjoy about your Y experience?

It's a wonderfull way to get all the exercise you want in a safe environment. You are surrounded by many people that are usually willing to say hello in passing or may strike up a conversation while attending an exercise class. All of the staff are friendly and will try to help you with questions, etc.
