JCC Kaplen is extremely well organised. I feel welcome as a local resident even though I'm neither from Jewish heritage not do I yet have a network of friends in the nearby Jewish community.
Once you walk around the campus, you can see that that facility lives up to its high standards of welcoming, accepting and celebrating diversity - of heritage, of gender, of age, of color - and their partnership with local PD provides safety and comfort esp. with so many kids playing around.
I appreciate how kind and courteous the staff and the coaches are, they certainly make sure that no one feels that workouts, classes, events etc require a lot of effort. I always leave feeling I have gained a tiny bit of health and happiness.
There's a lot that goes behind running a facility like this and I can never over-emphasize my gratitude to the board, staff, security, coaches and the village that takes pride in their effort.
Thank you for offering us an opportunity to experience your generosity.
My family and I love the Kaplen JCC. The sense of community and warmth coming from all the staff are amazing. We enjoy the kid events, the fitness center (shout out to the best of the best, my trainer Regina!), the indoor track, the Cafe. We have yet to experience the pools, but that's just a cherry on top. Kudos to this facility and all the hardworking staff.!
I love exercising in such a clean and well equipped facility
I love your very well rounded choices for activities
I personally love the writing class facilitated by a professional who really teaches writing
I met the nicest people playing indoor pickleball and then we played outside as the weather got nicer. The spa experience was excellent because Andrea the receptionist and Emma massage therapist are both wonderful. The classes were great. I especially love Ofira classes and working out in the gym with Shir as personal trainer. The gift shop has some nice Passover items that I bought for gifts. Andy who helps with organizing pickleball is wonderful! I like the Pilates classes and enjoyed the reformer class too! I went to the Sunday presentation of three authors and that was exceptional! The gym is state of the art and very clean!
