There are also multiple dining option and a student pub.  The Sault College Athletic Association has a huge variety of opportunities for participation in both competitive and recreational activities.  
• Location: The sun, miles of sandy beaches, swimming, BBQs, biking and more. Sault Ste. Marie is a gateway to summer adventure for day trips up the coast of Lake Superior as well as camping, and hiking. For the summertime urbanite, the Sault also has enough to keep one busy; dog parks, skate parks, downtown street parties, walks along the boardwalk, a summer concert series, outdoor yoga and fitness classes, and a 22.5 km non-motorized hub trail are just some of the amenities to take advantage of. In the winter, students can take part in ice fishing, fatbiking, skating, skiing, snowboarding, sleigh rides, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, ice caves, hiking and more. In the Sault, one can sign-up for a yoga snowshoe class during the day and take a midnight ski by the light of lanterns at night.  Sault Ste. Marie has over 150 km of world-class ski trails, and is just a 45 minute car ride to one of the best mountain resorts in Ontario. It is also home of the Soo Greyhounds, and the historic Bon Soo Winter Carnival, the ‘Fifth Season’ in Northern Ontario.
