I am extremely disappointed in the new healthy living Director, I am very tired of hearing him yelling at people how did not wrong he is either stupid but he can understand that setting down 100lbs + WILL MAKE A NOISE or he is jealous that some people can pick up more weight than him. I hate talking bad about people but this needs to stop he is distracting people confidence and motivation if this it not resolved shortly I will leave updates this review to a 1 star! And for a 3 star gym y’all probably should start listening to your reviews instead of making excuses and well you’re at it please clean up the place

It's good but getting here has always been problematic for me. Every time I take the Metro Plus it always drops me off here late and it was running really late this morning

The YMCA is an okay place, but some of the employees are gossipers. And the excersie trainer, in the gym, the old Caucasian man, looks creepy. Some of the employees should be replaced, by new fresh ppl.

They leave garbage all over the park to blow into our yards everyday. I've called on numerous occasions talked to ceo Will Welch left messages with others about my complaints but it seems to be ignored so I'm guessing their teaching the kids that it's okay to litter and not pick up after yourself. So apparently according to their response it's ok to leave the garbage all over the park for the wind to blow it all over our yards street so that way everyone else has to pick it up BRILLIANT.while they pick it up once late in the afternoon after the wind blows it away and they pick up the leftovers BRILLIANT wouldn't it be easier to make sure its put in it's proper place and teach your 200 children not to litter right off the start and yes its A INCONVENIENCE PICKING UP YOUR GARBAGE EVERYDAY MONDAY-FRIDAY 4 new pictures added at 7pm on 7//26/23 doesn't look like late afternoon picking up

Not the cleanest facility for some reason they can't seem to get that part right after many many years but other then that it's a nice facility for families

The YMCA discriminated against my son with Autism and refused to take him to a field trip due to his Autism. The director did not have enough respect to even call my husband or I to discuss the matter, instead she "delegated" it to one of her very improperly trained staff. This staff member left a very unprofessional voicemail on my phone. When my husband picked up my son from camp no one even attempted to discuss the matter with him. (at this time he didn't know they left a voicemail regarding my son) Their reasoning was that it was "for the safety of him and staff" although I may understand this if the child is aggressive, hitting, combative, etc. this is not the case with my son. Even after asking the YMCA if he was any of the above they denied it and said he was not any of those things. For them to just decide to dismiss him without any reasoning was completely breaking the ADA law. I am very disappointed with the YMCA. They promise that any child can come to the YMCA summer camp, they don't promote bullying, they promise everyone is included in everything. This week they broke those promises. I would not be doing justice for my son if I didn't leave this review. I am his voice and I refuse to let him be treated like this.

I joined the Kankakee Y back in April 2021. Gina and Octavia are super friendly and made me feel welcome which meant a lot to me since I just moved back here during the pandemic after leaving 28 years ago. Cindy helped me assess my current health and set goals. I appreciate that. I go to the Y 3-5 days a week and really enjoy it!

I would recommend more members to come in because well there hasn't been a lot of people in the kinky area YMCA and we really appreciate it more members would come back to the YMCA or at least new members. it's been very low attendance there so it just I don't know there's just and they close the YMCA tomorrow all day instead of 6: 00am to 11: 00am cuz they just can't keep on because they just don't have enough attendance. so please come back to the YMCA we need more people there.

The YMCA of Kankakee shows concern and understanding for its members more than any fitness center in the area. Just this morning, I used the pool at 5 am, but realized I had locked my keys in my car before I entered the Y. I was thinking about how I was going to take care of this problem while I was swimming laps. I mentikned to life guard that I was going to have to cut my swim short so I could deal with getting car unlock. Without me mentioning anything else, she contacted the desk who contacted the police. An officer was waiting for me when I arrived at the desk. They went above and beyond to help me out.
