Owasso Family YMCA

Generally a good facility, but the internet isn’t very good. So, bring your own device, but don’t be surprised when you can’t stream anything and you’re stuck watching Fox news or golf on YMCA’s tvs.

We were so excited about having a Y close to us. We were so disappointed. The new part of the Y here is only the pool (which is not that big and the lazy river is not a lazy river really it’s very small about a big circle and people just walk in it.) the lazy river we had at out old pool in Gardner, ks was huge and took several minutes to go around on the tube.
The new building is also the Zumba classes and a gym and the cardio equipment. To get to child care, free weights and old gym and other classes you go outside and walk to the old building. Then you still have to go upstairs to get to free weights to a tiny room.
We were not at impressed at all and the only reason it gets 2 stars in the new building is very nice.

I don’t know how long this facility has been open but my guess is that it’s one of the newest ones. It is huge and included a double court gym, cardio and weight training areas, lockers and shower rooms and my favorite: the pool! It has a lazy river (water aerobics!) with toys for kids and a long winding slide. Kids absolutely LOVE it. My nephew even had his birthday party there and everyone had fun.
They have a variety of group exercise classes including boot camp, cycle, kickboxing, dance classes, yoga, Pilates, step, Zumba, and the list goes on!
Their indoor pool is open year-​round but make sure you go online (
) and check the schedule – same for group classes – before going.
You can also sign up for sport leagues, they have basketball, soccer, flag football and more! They divide the groups by age: kids (3 – 8, 9 – 12) and adult. They also have other programs such as before and after school care.
There are various events held throughout the year that are open to everyone such as their Halloween dance, thanksgiving run, Zumba marathon, etc. If you like them on Facebook, you’ll know what’s going on.
As far as memberships go, it is around $ 50 – 100 (depending on family members). No members can swim for $ 5 and use the gym for $ 10.
