Welcome to the official website for Rolesville, North Carolina.
Rolesville is a small town nestled in northeastern Wake County just outside the capital city of Raleigh. It is the second oldest town in Wake County and one of the fastest growing towns in the State of North Carolina for the past several years. We welcome you to the official website for our community and invite you to learn more about this community that so many people love calling “home”. Come visit our town and find out that we are a unique place to live, work, and play.
Concert In The Park
The Town of Rolesville’s 175th Anniversary Committee is sponsoring a Concert in the Park on Sunday, June 3 starting at 5 pm. The outdoor concert is FREE and will be located at Main Street Park on the back side (accessible via Scarboro Street). Free parking is available at the park and at Sanford Creek Elementary School. The group North Tower Band will be performing from 5 pm to 7 pm. Bring your blankets but no coolers, open umbrellas, or alcohol will be allowed. Come on out, enjoy some great music, and get ready for a wonderful summer. For more information, visit the 175th Anniversary’s website or contact Town Hall at 919.556.3506.
Operation: Porch Light
Operation Porch Light: “Flip on the light to put crime in sight”. This is a new program offered by the Rolesville Police Department. The Town wants to be pro-active and prevent crime before it happens. We need everyone’s help though and that is where this new program comes in. The Town is asking everyone to turn on their front porch lights, driveway lights, backdoor lights, etc. EVERY night. Our purpose is to increase awareness of safety. Please be sure to lock you vehicles, doors, and windows at all times and don’t give criminals the opportunity in our community. To learn more about Operation Porch Light and get tips, click here and visit the Police Department’s page for the program.
Library service via the Bookmobile
The Town of Rolesville Mayor, Commissioners, and staff are working hard to get a library in Rolesville. This takes dedication and a lot of money on behalf of Wake County which is a challenge considering the economy. To help fill that gap though, the Town is partnering with Wake County to bring the bookmobile to Rolesville area children. It is a small step towards having a full service facility. We are going to have monthly visits by the Bookmobile from 1 pm to 3 pm at Town Hall and story-times will be around 1:30 pm. Why this date and time? It is the only one available for the book mobile to come to our area so we are taking advantage of that. Click here to download the flyer to get all 2012 dates. Please call Town Hall if you have any questions and we hope to see you out.

Rolesville, Wake County, and the NRC
Do you know that the Wake County Human Services Department offers many services to the Town of Rolesville citizens through the North Regional Center (NRC)? The center’s location is in Wake Forest and is a great asset to our community. Many services are provided so that one doesn’t have to go all the way to downtown Raleigh for assistance.
