Village of Alix recreation coordinator Coralee Brookes works among tubular pieces of a play structure being assembled in a new recreation facility in the village. The structure may be familiar to some as it was once the multi-level play structure that was the heart of the Moonwalker facility in Red Deer. The Village of Alix purchased the equipment from the previous owners of Moonwaklker in the hopes of creating an attraction that will bring in visitors to Alix and help fund local recreation programs. Sharing the new 3,500 square feet of space will be arcade games, a toddlers area and a sitting area for adults. Also occupying space in the same building will be a business incubator, where startup ventures can establish themselves in a low-cost setting. The building on Railway Aeenue will also serve as the home of the Alix Family and Community Support Services, the recreation dept., the emergency services centre and the local food bank.
