I wouldn't recommend using them for child care. The first week my child came home sun burnt, though had sun screen from the first day. Staff in this department are not very good after 2 months couldn't recognize my children's name nor pronounce the name correctly. The rest of the facility is fine. Great gym experience, plenty of activities.

This has to be the BEST YMCA I've ever been to. I never go to a different Y. closer to my location. My daughter is wanting to take elliptical lessons, however, I totally could have signed her up at our closest Y., but instead decided to sign her up at Mt. Trashmore's Y., because it's my choice as her parent. The ellipticals are beyond amazing in appearance. They're always clean, but with a hint of sweat residue (to be expected). My daughter won't allow herself to sweat, due to her phobia, but she doesn't mind if the ellipticals occasionally have some remnants of other member's sweat - I mean, sweating IS only natural.The handle bars have great grip. The pedals move in fluid motion. The machines are just her size. She couldn't be happier with their ellipticals! Unrelated: She told me a week ago she even thinks the layout of the facility is fabulous! Their showers/locker rooms are literally in THE MOST OPTIMAL LOCATION, IN RELATION TO THE ENTRANCE, AS POSSIBLE. At the Y. I've once been to nearest to me, there were only elderly people using their ellipticals (or possibly taking the elliptical lessons, perhaps). At THIS Y., there were young adults, and teenagers my daughter's age all using the ellipticals! Get your cardio on, youngsters... My daughter and I will ALWAYS come be coming to the Mt. Trashmore YMCA!

It's a nice gym, pretty small though but they have enough to where you shouldn't have to wait on a machine or a bench during non packed hours. The pool is really nice and clean. The cardio room is really good, I never have to wait on a treadmill. You have to bring your own towels.

My son went to the YMCA summer camp for several seasons. He loved attending the camp classes there and as a handicapped individual the property is extremely accessible to me. It is all one level and doorways are wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs as well as strollers. The staff is very helpful and accommodating and understanding of special needs that need to be met with various persons. I would highly recommend trying a want to see a YMCA membership or even just to visit.

This has to be the WORST YMCA I've ever been too. I usually go to a different Y closer to where I live. My son is taking school age swim lessons however I waited too late in signing him up for the next session so I had to go to the only Y that had space available...Mt Trashmore. The indoor pool at this Y looks like trash. The pool is filthy...it looks like it has never been cleaned. The railings and stairs in the pool are very rusty and looks unsafe. The area near the skylights over the pool have rust and chipped paint. The door handles leading back to the main area of the Y is covered with what looks like green rust. The locker room really shocked me. Unlike the Y I normally go to where the showers are in the back and lockers are located as soon as you walk in...well at Mt Trashmore the showers are located as soon as you walk in and the lockers are in the back. Even the life guards seem very relaxed. At the Y I normally go to kids under age 13 aren't allowed in the pool w/o a parent or guardian if they haven't passed the swim test and earned a green necklace. I've noticed lots of kids under the age of 13 in the pool (indoors and out) without a parent or guardian and no green necklace. I can't wait til my son's swim lessons are over...I can't see myself coming back to this Y.
