★Jason HobbsIt's been some time now, but I had an issue with several employees jeering, laughing, pointing, and making fun of me while on the weight room floor over fabricated social media posts from years prior that were shared with them by individuals who were stalking and harassing me at the YMCA Kennett Square. I was getting back into lifting after a several year break and burst my patellar tendon that ultimately put me out of the gym for at least six months, but then I went on to have similar issues at the Lionville and West Chester branches, in addition to frequent sexual harassment, regular harassment, and sometimes physical intimidation, across all three locations. I do not recommend the Kennett Area YMCA or any GBW YMCA branches.
★★★★★Lindsay SnowThe YMCA has been a great place for my daughter to get exposure to kids of different ages and backgrounds, while also getting to try new activities and get energy out. We love it!
★★★★★ClarkI highly recommend this great campus size facility at Kennett YMCA. It is so large without even going upstairs. It is full of helpful knowledge great staff. There are great options for swimming pools and equipment and has very sizable pools warm and cold. Plenty of lap lanes. Nice weight room and ball gyms. It is great to be here. Locker rooms and showers are accomadating which have weighing scales and includes a swim suit extractor and nice showers. Available with snack and drink machines and I believe coffee and sinks.
★★★★★Vicki CapolarelloI love the pickleball program at the Kennett Y which has enabled me to be physically active and introduced me to many new friends and social opportunities. I also learned to play mahjong at the Y, and now play regularly with a group of new friends. In addition, the EGYM machines are easy to use and have helped me to gain muscle. The Y staff are always very helpful and friendly, and it’s a pleasure to spend time there.
★★★★★Denise CianciaThe Y offers a variety of classes at varying times. I have so many favorite classes that I look forward to each day! The instructors are so enthusiastic! They motivate and inspire us! You can tell they love what they do! I am proud to be a member of the Y Community!
