Stay fit class is wonderful but the space is too small to accommodate the size of the class. Many times i am unable to sign up for the class as it can only accommodate a certain amount of people.
Please move this class back to the gym asap.
incredible staff who genuinely care and set an excellent example. so many activities that boredom is an impossibility.
Excellent, amazing!
The people that run the camp and the counselors are all very friendly and helpful.
He really enjoyed the outside obstacle course and the foam pit inside.
We loved it! Our only regret is not signing up for longer - will definitely change that for next year!
Everyone is amazing. Ms Jess and Megan are awesome!!
Camp staff do an excellent job of making my son feel like a valued camper.
Because my son loves going to summer camp every day, I know he's happy—and that's what matters most to me!
Would prefer the groupings be based on grade vs pure age so kids could be with their classmates. Also that it only goes until 3 is a challenge for working parents because pick up is effectively at 2:30. Otherwise I think the program seems orderly and I think she had fun.
My child was told to wear a life vest in 3ft in the pool. He is 4.4 and he was tested and was able to use the "deep end" at the Melrose location. I'm not sure what the swim test in Saugus looks like, but I believe my child would have been able to pass at another location. I do understand the concerns for safety, but honestly, my child is able to swim and should be able to retry the test. He was told he can only test once a week so the opportunity for the whole week is gone
First time campers here and my girls seem to be having a great time. Seem to keep them fully engaged and the communication has been good so far.
My only critique would to warn first time parents of campers that literally everything they have will be dragged through the mud. So only send backpacks and lunch boxes etc that you don't mind getting absolutely filthy.
The staff and counselors are extremely helpful and understanding when it comes to little kids who are struggling at drop off and they are flexible and accommodating. They made my son feel safe and comfortable after some challenging times and they keep you in the loop about what’s going on at camp which is a blessing for parents! Camp director Jessica Neely has been nothing short of amazing with my son. Words cannot express how grateful I am to you. AND my son is having a blast at camp!
My daughter is thriving having fun learning new skills every week in a great encouraging clean environment.
Saugus ymca is so much fun! The leadership sets the tone for Ana amazing summer. My kid is outside and happy all day. Comes home dirty and tired. Gets to go swimming. Each week there is a fun theme. We’ve been going for years and it’s still fun. Jessica neeley creates such an awesome atmosphere, greeting everyone with a smile and great attitude in the morning, makes the camp so fun!
Love it. This is our second year and my daughter is always so happy to go there. Capm director Jessica is awesome and all counselors are great.
I dont like that I have to pay additional coast for the saugus out door pool
Love the timing of fitness classes, Zumba, Stay Fit and Chair Yoga. Great for the senior members!
Instructors are kind and patient with kids. Only thing I would love to see change is that every week the obstacle course is the exact same. Would be great to switch it up a bit.
Teaching quality is very inconsistent. Particularly at the advanced level where the cost is higher, classes are too big for enough attention and many teachers give few personal pointers. However, location and price for family members is good.
Great variety of activities
Great program full of amazing teachers . Wish they had more afternoon advance classes for 6-7 . Amazing teacher that put there all into teaching ! Kylie is a great worker and has been so helpful to my daughter throughout the years my daughter has been attending!
Thank u to all the teachers you have been so helpful and kind and loving and attentive to the girls in class ! Much better the. Past years of attending ! kylie has done a great job becoming director .
Our teacher Ms Abby is the best!
I understand why this group is for younger children, but it would be great to have open gym weekend mornings for families with somewhat older kids (thinking more elementary 6 to 10?)
