SDIRC Accepts Donation of Property from the Graves Family01/29/2021
Vero Beach, FL, January 29, 2021– Our school district has accepted the generous donation of the property owned by the Graves family, located across from Vero Beach High School. The property, formally known as, “Jimmy Graves Sports Complex,” is named after Joe and Carole Graves’ son Jimmy, an avid soccer, football, and track athlete who passed away in 2016. The family said the Jimmy Graves Sports Complex was created to carry on Jimmy’s legacy and do something good for the community that helped raise their son. At our Board Workshop meeting on Tuesday, January 26th, Mr. Graves spoke about Jimmy, and revealed that his son, who was a member of the Gifford Middle School track team, had expressed his concerns over the conditions of the athletic practice areas that were available to the students.
