I have had mostly good experiences but couldn't get a reasonable answer why spectators for kids soccer can't sit on the parking lot side of the field. Watched the "ref" move elderly people from the shade to sit facing the sun. I just can't make sense of it.

This is the third year my granddaughter has attended the YMCA day camp! I am thrilled with the program they offer. The swim lessons are amazing, the field trips were so enjoyable. I loved my morning greeting from Andrew and Alyssa they were like a little bit of sunshine to start my day! Great staff!

Much better basketball program this year. Coach Brian and Coach Steve (volunteer coaches were fantastic). Chris at the Y is very friendly and encouraging to parents and knows and remembers a remarkable number of the kid's names. Still room for improvement with refs and scoreboard staff. So many cancelled practices for basketball as the basketball program is linked with Plainfield schools.
