Powered by GoogleMy kids wanted to go swimming on my 40th birthday, so we did. We loved it so much that now that we got moved up here we are going to get a family membership.
Love working out here. Usually a great experience. Tried to lift tonight and use the stair master but an employee made me uncomfortable. He was making laps around the machines, doddling about; seemingly getting paid to do nothing. Passed by me over and over about 6 times until I'd had enough. I decided to leave because I couldn't workout in peace
Good facility to workout at. Parking is a struggle after 5pm and, at times, too many people lortering around the equipment, and not use them.
Came to the Y tonight and there was a sign saying that the locker room is being cleaned by opposite sex. My question is why can’t they clean the locker room either before they open or after they closed is it necessary that they need to clean it during business hours? Also, why does the steam room always smell like mold? Please come up with a solution for this. My son goes in the steam room and talks about how all the guys in there naked. Do they really have to be stretching in the steam room naked?
I travel all over for work and worked in Bismarck for years. This YMCA is the most versatile, cleanly and organized I’ve been to. It offers a WIDE variety of options from strength to cardio and plyos. Whatever Kara and her staff have done is remarkable. Feels like a new gym since I’ve been here. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a day pass or a membership. As good as it gets.
