The Graves County Eagle Foundation, a non-profit organization established in 2010, is comprised of parents, community, business and educational leaders. It helps bridge the gap between a decline in state funding and the growing educational and facility needs of students in the Graves County Schools. Last year, the foundation brought New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow to Graves County. Through ticket sales and corporate contributions, the foundation raised more than $150,000. The group presented a $100,000 check to the Graves County school board Thursday night, Aug. 16. The money will go toward rubberizing the track at the high school football field. Foundation and board members pose here as Superintendent Pete Galloway accepts a check from Foundation member Dr. Tim Jones.
