The Bloomington-Normal YMCA is decent at most. There isn’t much to this building, it is fairly tiny in size. When you walk through the front doors you can see the building is not very clean. It has a very small workout room with old, rusted weights that don’t seem to be sturdy. They lack a water fountain near the weight room, instead they give you sip sized cone cups that don’t seem to do the job. Also, if you are not a member with this YMCA, but another, you only have a certain limit of times you can enter before you have to buy your own membership. I always went to the YMCA in hawthorn Woods IL. Its two and a half hours north. I would rate that YMCA a 9 out of 10 where as I would rate the Bloomington-Normal YMCA a 3 out of 10. I think ways to improve this YMCA would be to keep the cleanliness up, possibly invest in some new weights for the workout room, install water fountains throughout the inside, and decorate the inside and out to give it a more appealing family look.
Lots of fun for the family. Not vary many people use the weight rooms for those people that like lifting weights alone. Excellent facility. Lots of fun!!! for more information log on to www.bnymca.org Bloomington-Normal YMCA 602 S. Main Street Bloomington, IL 61701 (309) 827-6233 (309) 827-0807 Facsimile
