“This community resource is invaluable. The facility has excellent fitness spaces but the real value is in the programs for everyone--young and old. The Gindes Center has an excellent Adult Daycare Program, and the Ignite business networking events are great for small area businesses. There's something for everyone.”

“I love this store! It has unique gifts, fun Christmas ornaments and decorations, great socks for a cause, and lots of useful things. The best part is everything you buy is Fair Trade! I never leave empty handed, and I always eat, drink, give, or use whatever I purchased.”

“Kramden institute has stepped up their game. This new facility is larger, offers even more programs than before. I would recommend this training program for anyone who owns a computer. I'm 78 years old, and I relearned more in one training session than I had forgotten over thirty years. They even teach kids how to code. If, like me, you have those moments when you want to throw your laptop in the trash; give Kramden Institute a call. I promise you won't regret it.”

“I went to the co-op for the first time and had a great experience. Rick is extremely knowledgeable and kindly walked me through the whole process. I had an extremely damaged bike that he was able to bring back into full functionality! I would definitely recommend working with Rick if you have the opportunity.”

“Ms. Rosa's support has been invaluable in our search for a new home. I took the first time homebuyers course and was surprised at how thorough the content was. We eventually made an offer on a home, and had it not been for what I learned here, my anxiety would have gone through the roof (I'm an international transplant used to a more straightforward process). If your thinking about support when searching for a home, look no further. Their services are free of charge.”

“One of the coolest things about the Scrap Exchange is that you can almost always find leftover partial portions of pretty much anything. Stains, solvents, glues...if you just need a little bit of something, the Scrap Exchange will likely have it...”

“Very friendly and helpful. Historic building. A resource for the community.Bricks used to build a Church were fired by brickmaker Richard Burton, Fitzgerald, and Robert G Fitzgerald. They have about 150 years of where, but the clay used is excellent and the bricks are well-made and you can see it the care and the competence in the state of the brick today.Historically important area of Durham with a vibrant future ahead. On Monday nights or maybe Wednesday evenings (I can’t remember exactly) they have African dance class for the community.”

Sometimes they give little gifts too. They contact you a lot when you're eligible to give again because they hope you give again as soon as possible.”

Had an appointment at 12 p.m. and was done around 1:30 p.m. I was able to get 3 pairs of pants and 5 shirts, a tote bag, and 1 pair of shoes.”

“Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Arriving via Uber is possible but I opted to get picked up just out of the security area to reduce the time they have to wait. The walking path around the lake is also very nice to enjoy the ducks, turtles and geese”

“For me, this Y is a happy place. It is so convenient and it has all I need. I love the pool and I also like to workout in the gym upstairs. Everyone that works there, like Tony, is exceptionally nice.It can get crowded after work and can be tough to find the dumbbells you need. It's never a problem to get a cardio machine and the locker rooms are never too crowded. If the classroom studio is open, there are lots more dumbbells in the lighter range in there. I do wish they would have another dumbbell rack of the commonly used lighter weights (10, 15, 20lbs) in the main area.I gave four stars versus five to be clear that it is nothing fancy because I know some people will be looking for somewhere more sleek and shiny and new. I actually like that it feels more like a community center, which is sort of the idea of the Y, than some trendy gym. I grew up going to Ys and even worked at one for two years. I do hope they fix the pool hot water heater, though! Otherwise, it is way too cold for swimming in the coming winter months ”
