Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality The Jefferson county YMCA is clean and staff/ employees always have a smile on their faces.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to the Y since they opened. When I was still teaching, I was one of the 'early birds' that arrived around 5am in the morning. It was about the same group of us, every day, and we developed a camaraderie and strong friendships. That was a great time. Since, I retired and continued to go to the Y, but not as early! My husband became very ill in 2019 and because of his illness, I didn't get there as often as before. After his death at the end of 2019 I was trying to get back into a routine of attending when the pandemic hit, and eventually the Y like many other places, was closed for a while. I wish I had pushed myself harder after it re-opened, to get in there and back into a solid routine. I maintained my membership but just didn't get in there as I should have. The adjustment of losing my husband has been difficult and looking back, getting back to the Y quicker would have been so beneficial. I am back, now, and am trying to get back into a good routine. I'm very proud of the YMCA and the service it provides our community.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality I consider the YMCA a safe place and a community outreach. I always feel confident to come here. It's very accepting of everyone. I also believe it's a charitable organization striving to improve the quality of life for all.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality The classes are great. A large variety of offered at various days and times to fit into multiple schedules. The instructors are outstanding and very helpful. I really like that the instructors will provide alternatives or modifications for individuals with physical limitations so that they can still take the classes.

Fantastic experience: My daughter attended 6 weeks of camp here this summer and she loved it! She adored her camp teachers Kathy, Lauren, both Hannah's and Destiny. The workers at drop off/pickup made everything easy and organized. She also did swim lessons while at camp and learned a lot of new skills. We will definitely be back next year for more summer camp fun! Thanks Jefferson County Family YMCA.

Fantastic experience: I love coming to the Y. This challenge has been lots of fun. Tried different swim classes and also the Moving Together Class with the Viper Tubes.
