Mayor's Welcome:
Welcome to Alix, Alberta! As the Mayor of Alix, it is my pleasure to extend a warm welcome to you. Nestled in Central Alberta, our charming village offers a unique blend of small-town warmth and vibrant community spirit. Whether you're visiting or considering making Alix your new home, you'll find plenty to love about our village.
A Community with Heart
Alix is more than just a place to live; it's a place to belong. Our core values are Community, Fiscal Responsibility, Innovation, Respect, Safety and Teamwork.
Vibrant Village by the Lake
Our vision, "Vibrant Village by the Lake", captures the essence of Alix. The picturesque Alix Lake is a big part of our community, providing a backdrop for daily life and a place for outdoor activities, including a small campsite. The lake is surrounded by a wonderful nature trail. This trail offers a perfect way to enjoy the natural beauty of our area, whether you're walking, jogging, or simply taking in the scenery. Our lake is also home to the Alix-Gator, be warned.
Rich History and Culture
Our village is steeped in history, with roots dating back to the early 1900's. The Alix Wagon Wheel Museum offers a fascinating glimpse into our past, showcasing artifacts and stories from the early settlers. Our heritage includes being the home of Irene Parlby, one of the famous five who won the right for women to vote. Each year in August, Village organizations host Alix days which includes a parade, games, activities and maybe a little food.
Local Economy
Alix boasts a strong local economy with a range of businesses and services that cater to both residents and visitors. From restaurants and unique shops to essential services, you'll find most everything you need right here. Our local businesses are the backbone of our community, and we encourage you to explore and support them.
A Place to Grow
For those considering a move, Alix offers an excellent quality of life. Our village is a safe, welcoming place to raise a family, with an excellent school and a variety of recreational programs for children and adults alike. Alix is an ideal place to call home.
Whether you're here for a visit or looking for a new place to settler down, we hope you'll find Alix as welcoming and vibrant as we do.
Welcome to Alix - where community, history, and opportunity come together!
Look forward to meeting you -
Tim Besuijen
Mayor of Alix, Alberta
