The Town of Knightdale wants to thank everyone who came out to the Veterans Day Tribute on Sunday, November 10th at the Veterans Memorial Plaza. It was inspiring to see the community come together and recognize the service and sacrifice of the veterans here in Knightdale. This event would not have been possible without the help of our excellent community partner, The Two Green Thumbs Garden Club.
We also want to give a special thanks to, Wake County Commissioner Don Mial, Knightdale Councilors Mark Swan and Stephen Morgan, former Knightdale Mayor Doug Boyd, Morrisville Councilor Steve Rao, Keynote Speaker Kelly Carter, Franklin Johnston, Scouts BSA Troop 365, and everyone who participated in the event.
If you were unable to make it out to the veteran's day event, consider stopping by Knightdale Station Park where the Veterans Memorial Plaza is located and check out some of the information posted about the memorial.
Let's continue to show our appreciation to our veterans throughout the year. We are grateful for their service! Visit our website to learn more about our Veterans Memorial

On Friday, November 22, the Town of Knightdale proudly celebrated the grand opening of Fire Station No. 1 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. This marks the second new fire station inaugurated this year, further enhancing our community's emergency response capabilities.
The event included guided tours of the state-of-the-art facility, thoughtful remarks from town officials, and the chance to meet the dedicated firefighters who serve our community. Attendees also had the pleasure of viewing two exceptional pieces of artwork created by contest winners, Anabelle R. and Zoey T., adding a personal and creative touch to the celebration.
This new station is a significant milestone in our commitment to protecting the safety and well-being of Knightdale residents and their property. We are excited about the opportunities it brings to strengthen our community’s resilience.
Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you around Fire Station No. 1!
