Testimonials

“The Y has been a wonderful place for us because it’s not just a gym and recreation center—it’s a community. There are people we’ve known here for so many years, people who have watched my kids grow up. The staff has been here a long time, and we’ve formed friendships with them. No matter what day it is, we can always stop in at the Y and have fun.”

“Originally, we joined the Merrimack Valley YMCA just to work out in the gym, but it’s been so much more than that. There are so many activities for the kids—swimming, arts and crafts, basketball, even a kitchen where they can learn to cook. You can’t get that anywhere else.”

“I love going to this YMCA! It is a gorgeous new facility with a wide variety of equipment and an inclusive atmosphere. There is no pressure to be a bodybuilder, and no shame if you’re not in shape – the focus is entirely on health and feeling comfortable there. They really make it a place for everyone, from athletes to families with children to retirees. The pool is kept in excellent shape (very clean), and there’s almost always a bike or treadmill available. I have found the staff to be professional and friendly. The Good Day Café has been a great addition in the past year. This YMCA seems to have a close connection to the community, and they are always running events to support local organizations and provide chances for social interaction.”

“One of the reasons that we joined the Merrimack Valley YMCA was to get a good workout in and to build a sense of community. We wanted a place to be able to make connections, to be able to be healthy. And we’re getting all of that through the Merrimack Valley YMCA.”

“The Merrimack Valley YMCA has meant so much to me personally. It’s been a chance to connect to community, to make new friends and maintain other friendships. It’s been a chance for my kids to be able to interact. It’s a chance for us all to be healthy, to be playing, to really have a positive experience in the community here. And we are so grateful for it.”
