★★★★★Joan BassettI've been playing at Spears for 9 yrs and have taught or helped many people to play. I've won Greater Greensboro Senior Games 3 yrs in a row plus High Point and High Country (Watauga County) and NC State Senior Games. If you are a member there you can play at all Y's. You can play from 5:30am to 3pm in open play. You meet such nice people playing this game and the people that work there are helpful and friendly.
★★★★★陈佳星We love the programs and activities! They are fun, engaging, and well-structured. The staff are amazing and make every child feel welcome. My child always has a great experience here.
★LGTV LGI don’t believe there is adequate guidance here for teaching swimming to children under 4 at the YMCA on Horse Pen Street. I used to bring my daughter here when she was 3 years old. One of the swimming instructors showed a serious lack of understanding of child psychology and age-appropriate teaching methods. My daughter had been attending swim sessions for nearly two years and was always happy playing in the water. She looked forward to swimming every week. However, one instructor—named J.—forcefully pushed her underwater without warning. She was terrified and cried intensely. Since that incident, my daughter has developed a strong fear of swimming. I sincerely hope there will be a review of instructor training and an investigation into how swimming is taught to very young children, especially those around 3–4 years old. Also, there is absolutely no monitoring of hygiene. The pool is full of hair, and many kids and adults get into the water wearing their dirty gym clothes. The pool basically turns into a public bath full of germs. It is disgusting to see people swimming in their smelly and dirty shirts. They need just shampoo to make it done! HERE NEEDS A SUPERVISOR!
