Around Town

The Green Door Tavern of course! There are plenty of clubs and groups to get involved in, and lots of hiking/outdoorsy stuff in the area if you bother to look.

Hang out by the water! There is always tons of stuff to do on campus: parties, free movies, club events, guest speakers, comedians, dance shows, etc.

Almost anything water related! Kayaking, Windsurfing, Sailing, Swimming, Aqua Aerobics, and more! They have many fun fitness classes like Yoga and Zumba. We even have a rock climbing wall! You can always take a walk in the beautiful campus and Historic St. Mary's.

There are a million things to do for fun here. My favorite: sitting on the docks by the river. Popular activities also include: sporting events, kayaking, paddle boarding, wind surfing, visiting The Point or Point Lookout, going out to eat in Lexington Park or California, going bowling, attending movies or events on campus, and just playing outside with friends.

There are many activities during random times (lectures, comedians, improv shows, games etc.), all you have to do is find out when/where they are.

Clubs, sports, and parties abound at this school. Whether you think you are a social person or not, you are bound to make friends and form great memories by participating in the wide array of extracurricular events. If you think you're going to be bored on the weekend, think again. St. Mary's offers free movie showings (prior to home movie release) on the weekends, the occasional comedian and quite a few parties, from quiet hangouts, to giant ragers, to bonfires in North Campus forest.

There are hundreds of clubs, everything from Math club to Ultimate Frisbee to the Tolkien Society, varsity, intramural, and club sports, and sailing is a HUGE on campus (they say you can't graduate without learning how at some point). There are movies, lectures, concerts, and other events every weekend. There are a lot of musical ensembles, small and large, for-credit and student-run. Campus is incredibly friendly, especially since it's small.

The outdoors is literally everywhere! Get out of the dorm and go sailing!

The waterfront provides the opportunity to sail, swim, paddle board, and kayak. Sail boats, kayaks, and paddle boards are signed out at the boat house and are free. There are also a lot of clubs on campus including club sports (in addition to varsity teams). Every Thursday night there is a musical Coffee House event featuring a local band or sometimes St. Mary's students. Comedians visit the school on some weekend nights and a movie is shown in the cinema on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Because the school is in such a rural location, there is not a whole lot to do off campus. However, DC is less than an hour and a half drive away.

at st. Mary's the most popular thing to do for fun is go to the riverside
