YMCA at First & Main

"We love this Y. It’s new and very clean. The staff are all very nice and the patrons are always polite and courteous of each other. Even when it’s very busy we can still get a good workout in as people typically move off of equipment quickly. My son loves going to learn and play and I know he’s in good hands there when I’m working out."

"I had no problems with the employees. The staff at this facility were great and more than friendly and helpful, but if you are a basketball player, avoid this place like the plague. This YMCA is not basketball player friendly whatsoever. Pickle ball rules the world here for the majority of the time and the "court" is constantly closed to basketball players for pickle ball. The "court" itself isn't even an actual basketball court, but more like a recreation court with two hoops added that are only lowered when basketball is actually allowed. It's extremely small. The rest of the building is pretty spacious and modern so I was shocked that they didn't even have an actual full sized gymnasium/basketball court. I was visiting from out of state. I'm not sure if basketball is just not that popular here in Colorado compared to Washington state or if it was just this particular YMCA catering to a different demographic. I even tried looking at schedules on this YMCA's website and it is very hard to find what you are looking for. I was expecting it to be more like a spreadsheet for the court listing each day of the week and having time slots for each activity for each day of the week, but it was some other format that didn't make sense. I was disappointed because I tried coming here at noon when basketball normally starts here (although Pickle ball was always allowed to extend into the basketball start time) and low and behold, it was closed for a pickle ball class. Next time I visit Colorado, I will just have to call and write down the schedule day by day over the phone or something, because their website schedules are just weird."

"I really just wanted to give a big shout out to Darci for the wonderful 1st impression she made giving us a tour of the facility. She was amazing and made such an impact that we joined the Y almost immediately. Knowing there's good people who serve here was a major encouragement, and I wish that more people in the world shared Darci's kindness, enthusiasm, and hospitality. I will be frequenting this YMCA location for the foreseeable future."

"We love the Y at First and Main! The Learn and Play Childcare Team offers 2.5 hours of childcare per day and this has been a LIFESAVER as parents. Their care enables us to exercise daily and then do homework or computer time afterwards. This location also has a wonderful family-friendly lobby area with tables for parents, and generally reliable Wifi. The Learn and Play staff has ensured that our child has a good experience every time, with smiles and fun interactions. The workers are caring, experienced, playful with the little ones, and gentle. They notify us if issues come up, but after attending regularly, we rarely get called to pickup our child early since the staff-members have many tricks to keep our child occupied and happy during our workout and post-workout. We love coming to the Y and look forward to many more years here!"

"When I joined earlier in the summer the daycare staff was amazing and I could tell they were so attentive to my son! Recently there have been changes in the infant room and my son doesn’t have his diaper changed and recently his diaper was so saturated his whole outfit needed to be changed when I picked him up after an hour. This is very discouraging when trusting someone to watch your little one for a short period of time."
