Rainy Day Activities

Rainy Day Activities

Whether riding a bike, enjoying time on the water, or strolling through downtown, St. Ignace is best enjoyed on a sunny day. Even a rainy day can be fun, though, and there are many indoor activities to keep you occupied until the sun is shining again.

The St. Ignace Public Library offers a wide variety of material to browse, comfortable seating, special events, public computers, and programming for children. It is the perfect place to escape a rainy day, or to duck in during a quick thunderstorm.

Alley Yoops is a bowling alley, beer garden, and restaurant at the south end of town. This family-owned, recently reopened bowling alley is the perfect place to bring the family for some indoor fun. Saturday night glow bowling is a highlight among their weekly recurring events.

Another rainy-day option is to catch a movie at the Courtyard Cinema just across the bridge in Mackinaw City. Located in the Mackinaw Crossings, this movie theater features new releases and blockbuster hits with all your favorite concessions.

Museums are an excellent way to get to know St. Ignace while staying dry on a stormy day. The Museum of Ojibwa Culture is dedicated to local native culture. Exhibits on display interpret the archaeology and history of the 17th-century Huron Indian Village, Father Marquette’s French Jesuit Mission, and local Ojibwa Indian traditions and culture. The gift shop offers authentic, handcrafted Native American items.

Little Bear East Arena provides a variety of indoor recreational activities to keep your body moving. An ice arena offers skating events and minor league hockey games in the winter and converts to a multi-purpose event space the rest of the year. Visitors can purchase a day or weekly pass for the walking path and fitness center. Check with Little Bear directly for information regarding fitness classes and special events.
