★★★★★ken st.amandI'm a member at this YMCA, front desk staff and the staff in the workout room are all pleasant and helpful
★★★★★MKThe Simmons is an exceptional facility! The staff are so kind, there are lots of different types of equipment, and there's one of the coolest basketball courts in town. I see so many young people inspired by the young men who teach them not only to use the equipment, but to be better humans. There is basketball for young people, there is a beautiful pool, and all the facilities you could want. It's a small package, but they make a huge impact on the community. I'm so grateful for this YMCA!
★★★★★Tiffany DockerySimmons is the best YMCA on the planet. The staff is always so friendly and always welcoming when I come in. Katrena, Jesus, Larry, Joyce, Elaine, Danny, and Sandra Mcphaul are some of the most wonderful souls I have ever met. I come to Simmons because it reminds me of family, and that why i choose Simmons as my home. The pool is also amazing and so welcoming. Thanks Simmons team you all rock!!!!
★★★★★Audrey JacksonI'm visiting from out of town. Larry was wonderful. He contacted my home Y and I was able to do my routine wellness session. I returned again and he was great. Taking Sandy's class was great. Thanks again Larry.
★Neq M.I strongly recommend bringing in new management that can provide better communication and planning for families. Recently, I signed my son up for flag football, and we attended the first practice on 09/05, only to be informed after practice that there weren’t enough players to form a team for his age group. These are kids, and explaining this to a 10-year-old was both disappointing and confusing for him. The way the situation was handled reflects extremely poor communication, and at no point was any accountability taken — only the fact stated that there weren’t enough players. It feels as though the YMCA prioritizes filling roles with volunteers or retirees rather than building a strong, reliable team to support the community and families who trust your programs. Better management, planning, and timely communication are necessary to avoid situations like this in the future.
