We are thrilled with the West Suburban YMCA (just off the Pike in Newton)! We use it for swimming lessons for the kids, summer camps (Pikati, Chickami, and Frank A. Day), Live Y'ers afterschool care, and exercising (treadmills, Zumba classes, and weight circuit training). It really has something for our whole family.

While my daughter is taking swim lessons, I can read a book from the pool observation deck and watch her (without distracting the class). Or, I can hop on the treadmill and watch a TV show on my individual TV (bring a headset). Great way to get in exercise without taking time away from spending it with my kids.

Our family has been using the Y every since we moved to MA five years ago. To me, the staff are like family.
