Review for Itasca County Family Young Mens Christian Association Inc, Grand Rapids, MN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The YMCA in Grand Rapids, MN, is a place that focuses on community and people in the area. I am so impressed with the senior center, the youth center, and the many areas that are served by people of all ages. Recently my self-employment companies closed, and I found myself starting over, both my husband and I trying to find jobs. The YMCA was able to put me on a reduced membership amount so that I could keep my membership. This was extremely important to our family, as we needed to rely on the the YMCA youth center as a place for our kids to go, as well as our son continuing his participation in the Sea Turtles swim team, etc. I believe that the YMCA is a huge asset to the community.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Please see above. I believe that the YMCA is well worth the membership fees.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Update some of the areas - painting, etc. Advertise the memberships more to draw more people.
