Amenities & Benefits
What People Have to Say
I joined the Y because it is a welcoming place to workout where my son & I can be physically active. I come to the Y to swim, workout, do classes, use the walking track & do yoga at lunch. My son loves to play table tennis and go swimming with his friends. I love all the different classes being offered, it keeps things fun.
I joined the Y to keep my family active, to have access to childcare and to learn important life skills (swimming). I come to the Y because active parents have active children and physical activities leads to physical literacy. I tried the learn to swim program and fell in love with the sport.
