"Bummer. I like the idea and offerings but the service was awful. Plus they never reopened the theatre, such a shame."

"GSB YMCA offers a wide variety of programs and services all day into the evening, including weekends! As a relatively new member, I appreciate the opportunities available for children, adults and seniors. The facilities are clean and staff have been very friendly and helpful with all of my questions. The YMCA is an experience, not just a gym. Aquatic center is amazing, with classes for children adults and seniors. Gym has everything you need to work out. I especially like the programs offered for Cancer survivors and Arthritis program. My family have been scheduling our week around programs offered at the YMCA. Lastly, it took a very short time to realize why members seem to look and feel so happy! My immediate impression remains, “ People at the Y are having fun, at all ages and stage of life”."

"Mostly I just swim now, but I have also held my son's birthday parties at the Y and he did all his swimming lessons there when he was younger. I like the friendly atmosphere, the people I meet, the friendly staff, the location, and the connection with the local community. I see the Y as a positive force for a lot of people and am glad to be a part of that!"

"Really enjoyed lack of humans there. Locker rooms are really well designed. Other ymca need to learn from this place.(east hampton ymca has midget size lockers that dont lock). Nice equipment, no people, warm water in pool. Yea! 84f vs freezing water in east hampton and patchogue ymca. Cant beat that! State of the art prison style showers(will add picture) make you feel alert and give you sence of adventure. Soap on a roap comes to mind. And best part was i pulled my back while lifting cause looked away, at girl running, lost balance and now i get week off of work! This place is a blast. Definately coming back!"

"If you want your kids to run around aimlessly without direction or guidance than this program is for you! Both of my kids went to the after school program for two years. It took two years of my kids constantly getting hurt and phone calls about how they bumped their heads and other kids hurting my kids before i said enough is enough. The staff doesn't understand the kids homework. So most of the time the kids homework is done incorrectly. Every time I went to pick up my kids the staff was huddled around the tables talking while the kids are left to their own devices. After an incident with another child where my son was made to feel like he was a bad person because the lady handled the situation by yelling and screaming at him I had enough! I spoke to the director of the program and after stating he understood what I was saying and he apologized to me he still didn't do anything to solve the situation at hand leading me to pull both my kids from this unsafe and harmfully toxic environment. Parent you have been warned! Do not waste your money!"
