We have re-branded!
Please bear with us while we make some changes to the website. With the move to our new office building we took the opportunity to update our logo. Often in the past due to the name "Summer Village Administration" we were mistaken for the ASVA (Alberta Summer Village Association) and people didn't really know which Summer Villages we represented. Our fresh new logo and colour scheme captures the feeling of the lake and lets everyone know which communities we serve.

Our physical office is closed, however our office will be operating as usual; just with limited staff in the office, or working remotely. You can reach us by phone, at 403-596-1084, or by email at info@sylvansummervillages.ca
Thank you for your understanding.

Due to the COVID restrictions being lifted and Alberta entering Stage 2 and 3, the Summer Village Administration will be reopening after the Canada Day weekend, at our new offices! Please note - we are moving to our new offices located at #2 Erickson Drive (right next to Tim Hortons). Thank you so much for all of your patience while we navigated through COVID restrictions. We look forward to seeing you all again in person.

Summer Villages are an institution in Alberta, nearly as old as the province itself. Traditionally evolved from cottage summer resort areas where seasonal residents wanted a role in local government or were dissatisfied with the level of service and taxation provided by their local municipality. There are now five Summer Villages on Sylvan Lake, Birchcliff (1972), Half Moon Bay (1978), Jarvis Bay (1986), Norglenwold (1965) and Sunbreaker Cove (1991) all sharing an administration office since 1991. Your Summer Village maintains bylaws to protect the watershed, water quality, bank and shoreline, flora and fauna of the natural setting in which we live.
