South Amboy Branch YMCA — Attraction in South Amboy

So my son has been going to the South Amboy YMCA with his school the past cpl weeks. Today before they even got in the water he slipped in a puddle in the locker room and busted his knee. Apparently their "lifeguard" and "Swim Program leader" who are supposedly EMT certified had his teacher call me and tell me it was a small cut he was fine. She stated to me it was flowing pretty bad and would have the nurse look at it when they got back to the school. The nurse then called me when she looked at his knee and said it looked like it was deep and she had no idea why the YMCA down played it as an abrasion when it was more of a laceration. So she put some strips on it until I picked him up. When I picked him up his knee still hasn't clotted. I called the school who advised me to get the incident report from the YMCA. I called the YMCA they wont give me a copy of the injury report said the school was responsible for his injury (their wet locker room floor) and their staff controlled the bleeding and didn't find it necessary for him to receive immediate care because it wasn't worthy of stitches even though it looks like it could have used a couple and I in no way see that as their call. Then they told me I was being rude... could you blame me? I asked if this happened to their child wouldn't they? Really upset this is how it panned out. We were excited about the...

Very nice place. Have now used it but was involved when it was being planned. Former Mayor O'Leary had worked very hard along with the Former Business Administrator Camille Tooker and the City Council to bring this to South Amboy. It's located at the end of South Broadway. If you go don't forget to stop by the County Park located on the other side of the railroad tracks. Great views of the Bay area. There is a walking path that goes from the Gazebo north to the Former boat launch. If you don't want to park in the park parking lot go past the entrance and then make the first Right turn. Follow that until it turns to the left. Once past the pool (private) go about 1 more block and park on the street. There are no signs but in-between every other house there is a walkway to the walking path. It is public access so if you are bringing a cooler it is shorter than walking from the park parking lot. Go even further down the road till the only right turn. Make that turn and it leads to the fishing parking lot. It is NOT just for fisherman/women. So if you Fish or want to be right by the sand and water DON'T go into the park. Pass the park entrance and make first Right. Follow it around the left bend to the first right. Parking lot is right there. I believe you need a...

This review is for the YMCA in South Amboy. I usually don’t leave reviews but it was such a Phenomenal Experience that I just had to. I had a 3 hour party there on Saturday. We did Pool, Gym with Bouncy house, games, soccer, basketball, and more. Then we went to the Party Room to have food and cake.(they have different party packages) Tom and his Team were beyond great, they were so welcoming and was there to help set up and made sure I had everything I needed. The lifeguard was awesome in the Pool! Tom and the Team was very nice to the kids and even played some sports with them. I made sure to tip them and include them with the food etc, everything was perfect! I will recommend 100%. You won’t be disappointed! Customer Service from them all was outstanding! One important thing I forgot to add- the gym, party room and pool were all...
