From the reviews

My son learned to swim and practice Taekwondo here, and both instructors were wonderful. They genuinely cared about his growth and helped him build his skills and confidence over the years. He also attended the daycare program for many years, and we had a great experience.

Track, yoga, sauna it'll have your stay at 4 hrs a day if you get hooked on doing everything in one visit everyday like I use to staff are friendly and good motivators, they are always walking around with positive vibes.

Amazing place! There is always something for everyone to do. My children are in the y child development program as well. They can't get enough of the summer camp program. Every day they swim, field trip once a week, park almost daily, activites, snacks, and meals daily.

★★★★★ — Whitney, Jul 2017

A great place to come and workout. The wellness classes are top notch. Everyone is very welcoming and kind. A nice plus as well for members is the 24 hr fitness center plus a full court gym to use after the rest of the Y is closed.
