Ice skating (…pretty much any hockey rink around will have some open skating hours, as well as drop-in hockey and/or stick and puck practices if you have the equipment)
In winter, the Fridge toboggan run in Waterford.
Canoeing/kayaking on the Huron or some other river can be entertaining, too.
Otherwise, I’d have to think about it. Having lived in the area all my life, I get a bit jaded about what’s around here sometimes.

Have some freinds over for a fire (pit) in the yard, you’d be surprised at how effective this is. Fire attracts people in a mysterious way. You may need to get out of the city though.
