News Release

ELKHART — Elkhart-based Surf Internet announced plans to bring high-speed fiber-optic internet to Muncie and Yorktown — delivering the first widespread fiber network in both communities and expanding access to fast, reliable service for thousands of homes and businesses.

The project represents a total investment of more than $25 million, with $21.1 million committed to bringing service to over 18,000 locations in Muncie and $3.9 million to connect approximately 3,000 addresses in Yorktown. Construction is expected to begin later this year and continue in phases into 2026.

“This is a game-changer for Muncie and Yorktown,” said Surf Internet CEO Gene Crusie. “We’re proud to be the first to bring fiber internet to these Indiana communities, helping local residents and businesses access the speed, performance, and reliability they need to work, learn, and stay connected.”

Muncie and nearby Yorktown — both located in Delaware County, Ind. — are growing communities where high-speed connectivity is critical for education, business, and daily life. Local officials welcomed the announcement, citing the impact the infrastructure investment will have on the region’s future.

Surf Internet will share construction updates directly with the community as the project moves forward, including information on neighborhood timelines and when service becomes available in each area.
