Love the Y! Their swim program is excellent and I can't wait until my daughter is walking so she can do more programs. I do wish their locker rooms were more family friendly - the lockers in the family changing area are too small and the actual "youth" locker room only has one changing table (which has a broken strap). I left a recommendation to address this at the front desk... I hope they do.
Our daughter goes to daycare here. Their program is fantastic. She can be quite a handful and instead of freaking out about her occasional bad behavior they handle it calmly and rationally unlike her previous day care at the Baptist church. I'm astounded at some of the things she's learned there!
Large and somewhat modern location.. Generally kept pretty clean. Staff can be overwhelmed on weekends, especially during enrollment times. Classes are reasonably priced and plentiful.. The pool access is very good and never overcrowded. If I lived closer id use it more.
Large comfy building with many activities, the main ones being swimming and expansive gym. Most individual activities cost money, but others like the gym comes with the membership. Overall, a great place but could get really pricey quick.
The aquatics coordinator kind of gave me a hard time and asked if I was “legit” when working with some of my personal friends’ kids who are swim team hopefuls. Asked if we were members. If she needs proof, I have my id, my card, and my phone card. I was taken aback. What was this about???? You can’t train together as national members? And excuse me? I get in the pool too. I happened to run this morning. So that’s why I’m giving this a 4 star rating. That interaction was disrespectful and rude.
