    Another YMCA visit during my travels. This one is a concept I prefer more with everything all on…read moreone main floor. The lady that checked me in wasn't so pleasant so that's part of my star bump. Didn't really get that welcome feeling with her when I mentioned I was a Nationwide Member. The locker rooms were easy to access and very cooled down. Men's locker rooms had a middle room for lounging. The towels here are super large (instead of the normal sweat towels). There's one enclosed room with weight machines, and then a larger open room with smith machines, dumbbells, bench, incline, pulley machines, treadmills/ellipticals and a cardio training zone. They also have an outdoor covered astroturf cardio zone. There is a large heated pool, basketball court and separate studio rooms for fitness classes. My only gripe is that front desk lady and the limited benches they have. Otherwise, this is a solid gym option!

    The employees who work the floor should do something about people sitting on the machines on cell…read morephones. I wanted to use the sit down elliptical by the gym and on lady was sitting there with her legs propped up reading a book and the other lady was just sitting there having a conversation with someone else. It's ridiculous that nothing is said about being on your cell phones for extended period of times while others are waiting. It's not my job to ask you to get up if you're not using the machine. Also cleanliness standards are lax.

    Usually everything is fine. Today there was a man in a Deadpool shirt. Saying lewd comments while…read morelittle girls were getting snacks. The girl asked for pop corn. The mom said pirate booty? And the guy in the Deadpool shirt said I want some of that, sounding like he was talking about the woman's booty. He brushed it off saying oh she was talking about the kids that is to bad. I am another mom. If I hear this person or anyone else talking like that again while my kids are there I will be forced to find a new gym to bring them to. He did not seem to have kids and looked as if he was flirting with the lady sitting at the front desk. I am utterly disgusted by this. There is small girls wearing skirts, unitards, and other revealing clothing for gymnastics. This guy should not be around little girls talking in this manner.

    The skill and genuine caring for the kids with this staff is amazing! From the first day my…read moredaughter started here, I witnessed how attentive coaches were with the children. My daughter has improved so much with her tumbling because the coaches are giving critiques and assisting her over and over again to help her complete a stunt correctly. The atmosphere is great, the gym is clean and everyone seems to love what they do. Any interactions I've had with coaches wether after practice or at the desk has been very friendly and helpful. We hope to continue at this facility for years to come!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Camp Chippewa! Granted, it's been 10 years since my twin sons…read morehave attended, but I'm pretty sure things are much the same. I discovered Camp Chippewa when my boys were about 7 years old. We started off with school holidays and then summer camp shortly thereafter. My sons went to Camp Chippewa until they were too old to go anymore - when they turned 13! I understand that owner Mr. George Burrell retired about 5 years ago, but sold the camp to his long time managers. The camp is still in good hands. My sons and I still talk about Camp Chippewa and "Mr. George" as if it were yesterday. So many happy times there! Most days when I picked my boys up from summer camp, they were tired, sweaty and dirty lol. Sometimes they would even fall asleep on the way home! This is because they were outside all day playing, swimming, riding horses, fishing, canoeing, and more. The only time they were inside is if the temp just got too crazy hot, or it was raining/storming. The camp counselors were great. Every year, there were always some counselors from countries around the world. This exposed the kids to different cultures and languages. Also many former campers return in the summer to be counselors when they are too old to attend themselves. When my boys turned 13, on their birthday and very last day ever at Camp Chippewa, the staff had a party for them. It was truly a sad day for us, but oh, the memories! If you don't want your children to be sitting inside a day care building all day watching TV...if you want them to get outside and play in the mud, get fresh air, they need to be at Camp Chippewa! Note that summer camp is (or at least was when my boys went) a day camp, not a sleepover camp. However, if you ever longed to go to a real sleepaway camp or wanted your kids to, maybe in the mountains, like you see on TV and movies...Camp Chippewa is that kind of place,has all those activities, but is a day camp. Also, at least when my sons attended, the cost was comparable to any other day care situation in town. But in every other way, Camp Chippewa was more!! Camp Chippewa is tucked away in a residential area off Southside & Bowden Road. You'd never know it was there, though, unless you knew it was there! It is a huge area, but fits nicely into the surrounding neighborhood. You owe it to yourself and your kids to check out Camp Chippewa!

    They had lots of well deserved good reviews. It's wonderful to have such a great outdoor summer…read morecamp in the middle of Jacksonville. This was my son's first year there and they kept him busy all day. He loves his counselors, many from out of the country, and had such a fantastic experience. This was a tough year for them and we were very happy with how they managed everything. He can't wait for next summer.
