Community Services/Non-Profits near Merrimack, NH

“Staff always greet you with a smile. Very clean. There is so much variety. In the past week I've done strength training, taken aqua aerobics, shot some hoops, swam laps, and took a sauna. It's not cheap, but if you will be using all the options it's definitely worth it. I do know there is finincial assistance available if needed. I really enjoy the atmosphere: this is truly an all-inclusive place.”

“Great place to relax and enjoy the company of other local veterans. Had a great time New Year's Eve. The band was great and met some really nice people. Look forward to spending more time there.”

“I love the classes and energy People are so helpful. My only worry it's about the underage in the gym.
Sometimes the boys sit in machine and stay 10 minutes looking the cellphone. I think need to put some posters for people make exercises and move”

“When I arrived, the employee (Allegedly, his name was Cooper) that was working the front desk was repeatedly telling a man that he couldn't enter. Being me (an empath), I immediately sensed this dark aura surrounding the man and knew that he was trying to sneak his way in while the employee (Allegedly Cooper) was refusing him politely. As it turns out, the man had this fake guest pass and was trying to enter with just that. The employee (Cooper, allegedly) even checked to see if there was an active membership under the man's name, and there wasn't! Cooper (Allegedly) kindly kept telling the man that he could not enter and repeatedly told him why that was the case until the man decided to leave.Cooper (Allegedly) then generously greeted me and allowed me in after I presented him with my YMCA membership card.I definitely recommend this place. They got really good service, and their employees know what they are doing!”

“My daughter has gone here for years & the transition at first was a little rough coming from a smaller community to a center so large, but the boys and girls club really is a program that offers so many amazing opportunities for the children. The kids have the chance to join so many different activities & see what they actually have interest in and with this area of the state dealing with high poverty, most of the children wouldn’t have ever had these opportunities without the club. They’re always doing some sort of event; African drumming, bingo nights w/ prizes, field trips to hike or the palace theatre, performances, etc. Our family loves their performing arts program & it’s 100% because of the head of performing arts, Isaiah. Huge shout out to him. He truly puts 150% into this program and it shows. The club had a few different people in his position before he came into it, and although they were all kind and put in a lot of energy, the changes Isaiah has made are phenomenal. My daughter has grown so much as a performer under his instruction!!! He teaches them actual stage basics, has them doing auditions, has performances set up in a perfect way for their space so everyone can see and the stages look so good. He changed the practice hours for certain programs & it really adjusted the show out to reflect kids that really have a passion for performing. By doing that, my daughter has met new friends that have the actual same interests as her & all of the kids he instructs have grown such a strong bond. Definitely recommend the club for those in the area and shout out Isaiah. Give that man an award! ?”

“We had a great time with our 2.5 year old. My husband and I were worried that it might be geared towards older kids - and to a degree a lot of it is - however, there were MANY activities for toddlers that were absolutely captivating to our daughter. There was a kitchen station, a modular ball and tube station, a bubble station, and a dinosaur fossil dig station that were mesmerizing to her… just to name a few. This is definitely a grow and learn museum, and I can definitely see our daughter gravitating to new things each time we visit as she gets older and becomes more interested in the activities that are a ‘level up’. Also, something that is absolutely worth mentioning - military families pay half admission, and kids 3 and under are free. Staff is extremely welcoming and helpful if you need guidance to age appropriate activities! We will be back soon!”

“these past years has been hard around christmas time a salvation army is there with a open hand to help very grateful for them to see my kids happy is the best feeling ever!”

“Extremely helpful. The staff here were kind, knowledgeable, professional and empowering. Soo grateful to have had access to this place. A wonderful resource for women to receive the help and tools they need. This place is women and lgbtqia friendly.”

“I've been a member for the last three months - 4-5 workouts per week. I really like the weight room - well organized and has what I need. The pool is fine - I really wish there was a second pace clock at the far end of the pool. The locker rooms are good - a bit tired but clean. What makes this place is the staff. Friendly and helpful. The team in the weight room is especially good. They will correct my form when correction is needed (which is often!). Highly recommended.”

“I have donated many items and the staff is friendly and helpful. I have also purchased many items and found the staff in the store friendly and helpful. I love that they give military discount!”
