Against a backdrop of waterfalls, lush greenery and heritage limestone architecture, the community of        

St. Marys Ontario provides all the activities for a fulfilling lifestyle.

       -          The Pyramid Recreation Centre offers recreational activities and supports thriving sports leagues with its facilities. The Aquatic Centre features a salt water swimming pool, sauna, spa and splash pad. Two ice pads keep hockey going all winter, with one converted in the off season for the community to play volleyball, floor hockey, inline skate or hold concerts.

-          The Friendship Centre, located in the Pyramid Centre, is focused on seniors. St. Marys seniors gather to enjoy meals, exercises, crafts and all sorts of classes, including computer instruction and language classes.

-          A vibrant downtown lives in the limestone buildings that are St. Marys’ trademarks. Besides the many shops, the St. Marys’ public library is the gathering point for the town’s film society, book clubs, chess clubs and philosophy discussion groups.  The Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is also located downtown.

-          The Thames river winds through our downtown; bridges and paths allow you to walk or bicycle while watching breath-taking sunsets and small waterfalls.

-          The Grand Trunk Trail is another beautiful walking trail in St. Marys. See the whole town and beyond from the stone viaduct of the Sarnia Bridge, formerly a rail line.

-          Prefer to do your walking with a set of clubs? There are three 18-hole golf courses in and around town.

In addition to all these wonderful things about my hometown is the fact that here in St. Marys the folks are just friendly and easy to get along with. We are a caring, safe town.
