Summer Camp- Camp consisting of various ages. The staff is not well trained enough to handle these kids, especially those who have challenges. There are bullies at camp who are intimidating the young kids, ages 5. Kids who report being bullied to the staff leaders are not disciplining the problem kid. Too much harm to our child is happening here at this camp where she's reluctant to attend everyday. The Executive Director & leader of the camp has failed to address my concern fully so this problem can be fixed. Camp is supposed to be fun, not painful, harmful or bullied. I watched kids wondered off where the staff didn't even know the kids had wondered that far off. This camp and YMCA possibly could be sued for child endangerment & negligence. I strongly suggest the owner respond to my post. The bigger kids hit the little kids with noodles and say threatening comments as well. High schoolers are not mature, trained enough or capable of handling these types of kids, especially specially need challenging ones. And yes I do know some there. These parents & authorized caretakers know their kids have major issues. Enrolled them in camp anyway so the YMCA can deal with them for weeks which absolutely makes no sense.

Very nice facility. Indoors & out. Came here to watch my cousins son play a soccer game. Bathrooms were clean. Vending machines were stocked too! Reception was nice.

A great family place, clean with lots of options for all ages. I've tried some of the classes, and the instructors are so positive, all about encouragement & doing the best you can, no negativity. They have nice equipment as well as an indoor & seasonal outdoor pool They are always looking for more ways to serve ther clients, they've for a grant with sentara for personal training for fall prevention, how nice! Watched a little people swim class today, what a great opportunity!

This is actually a decent place to work out, except when they have Child care camps. The noise they produce really takes away from your experience. I realize it's a Y and Children are going to 'be there but the facility isn't really build for 70 Children to be confined to a small gym for activities. The other thing is the price, its different for everyone it appears and I found out that one person could easily be paying more than a Family of. Four which is kind of crazy. The staff is wonderful and for the most part the gym is clean and the People that come there are really decent, but that price should be lowered especially for a single person that's paying more than a Family of four in many cases or more than a couple and I'm on a fixed income too. To bring a guest shouldn't be like pulling teeth especially when your paying the highest rate. You have a visitor from out of town and you might want to go first to clear or take a chance on being embarrassed. However, they have everything you need to get a decent work out, the classes for the most part are very good, just bring ear protection and your wallet. You will need both or you might get lucky and get an extreme discount. I didn't at all.
