Babysitting room to watch our child while we work out means we can all go together and exercise regularly without worrying about childcare. This alone completely justifies the membership and sets it apart from practically every other gym membership in the area.
Water volleyball is one of the most unique activities any Y has! Competition for seniors is hard to find because most sports are susceptible to injuries. The camaraderie of the dozens of players from all walks of life is amazing. Thanks sequoia for allowing something so unique to form without putting rules on it.
The YMCA staff are excellent and they provide a number of engaging activities for the children after school. Also, the staff are bilingual so they can help children with their homework during dedicated homework time.
The teachers at the YMCA aftercare program are all so warm and friendly with the kids! They keep them well engaged with crafts, gages, and outdoor play. My son loves going to the YMCAS program!!
