Greetings from the Mayor

Welcome to the Moonbeam web site. The Municipality of Moonbeam owes its origins to the courageous settlers and the forest industry.

Today, in addition to forest operations, our community also benefits from the advantages of a developing tourist town.

In Moonbeam, two worlds live side by side: the rural life and the northern forest with its lakes and rivers. This reality gives a particular quality to life which is envied by many. I hope you will enjoy discovering the precious details of our web site and will be attracted to take the road to the "The Flying Saucer" toward Moonbeam.

Situated on Highway 11 near the Town of Kapuskasing, we are recognized by our famous Remi Lake, our Provincial Park and our 34 km of Nature Trails.

Recreational activities change with the seasons. Summer calls for swimming, fishing, wild berry picking. Autumn leads families into the woods for small and large game hunting. Winter week-ends are spent ice-fishing, snowmobile riding, cross country skiing and down hill skiing.

You are a developer, a future employee of a private or public organisation, a tourist, each one of you personally will be warmly welcomed by our town hall staff and municipal council who will make sure you get all the advantages that are available in Moonbeam.

As mayor, I invite you to come visit us. You will be thrilled by our municipality and will in understand why people wish to reside in Moonbeam even after spending only a weekend.

We will be pleased to welcome you in the near future in Moonbeam.

The mayor,

Gilles Audet
