Great programs however, the facility is not well-cared for. Despite the fact that it seems fully staffed, the locker room is filthy, the weight room is very dirty (the workers stand behind the desk playing with their cell phones and talking rather than organizing/cleaning) and the towels that are provided are washed with very little, if any detergent (confirmed by an employee- cost saving measure). To make matters worse, I have witnessed a trainer blow his nose in the provided towels on more than one occasion. I complained to the management about this but the behavior continued. The facility has a great deal of potential, however, until it is better cared for, I will be finding an alternative.
The preschool at the YMCA is EXCELLENT. Not only do they teach my child but they offer her love and care, plus fun and amazement. Last year she came home writing her name and I never taught her. I'm sending her again this year and I can't wait to see what she will learn.
