Notice to Kill Devil Hills Residents Regarding Ripple Fiber

Residents in Kill Devil Hills will soon begin seeing crews from Ripple Fiber working in the right-of-way along local roadways. They are installing fiber internet services. Construction is expected to begin in the Fall of 2023 and last several months. 

Ripple Fiber will attempt to limit any inconveniences to our residents. Any questions or issues should be directly reported to Ripple Fiber directly via their website. Citizens may also contact their local office via phone: 252-862-3407.

Ripple Fiber will provide the Town with updates, which will be posted on the Town's website as they are received. 

The Kill Devil Hills Board of Commissioners recently passed a resolution in support of honoring local veterans by participating in Operation Green Light, a National Association of Counties initiative that encourages residents and businesses to show their support to local veterans by shining green lights throughout their communities to let local veterans know they are seen, appreciated and supported.

The Kill Devil Hills Board of Commissioners strongly encourages residents and business owners to join in the efforts and recognize the importance of honoring all those who made immeasurable sacrifices to preserve our freedom by displaying green lights at their place of business or their residence from November 6, 2023 through November 19, 2023.

An array of Kill Devil Hills’ government buildings and facilities will be illuminated with green lighting in honor of these local heroes during this time period—which coincides with both Veterans Day and the four-day period during which The Wall That Heals will be on display in the community—as a symbol of appreciation and support for the veterans who have so selflessly served our nation.

Kill Devil Hills Facilities to be Illuminated:

Aviation Park   (103 Veterans Dr., Kill Devil Hills)

Kill Devil Hills Town Hall   (102 Town Hall Dr., Kill Devil Hills)

Kill Devil Hills Fire Department   (1634 N Croatan Hwy., Kill Devil Hills)

Ocean Bay Lifesaving Station   (103 S Virginia Dare Trail, Kill Devil Hills)

The Wall That Heals

The Wall That Heals—a traveling, three-quarter scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., that tours the country along with a mobile education center—will be on display at the Soundside Event Site in Nags Head from Thursday, November 16, 2023 to Sunday, November 19, 2023. 

Honoring the more than 3 million Americans who served in the U.S. Armed Forces during the Vietnam War, The Wall That Heals is 375 feet in length and bears the names of the 58,281 men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in Vietnam. The free exhibit will be open to the public 24 hours a day during its stay in Dare County this November.
