VPR: Vermont Sports Broadcaster Heads To Rio Olympics As Announcer
Graves doesn’t yet know which sports he’ll be covering but this isn’t his first trek to the Olympic games which dates back to 1980 in Lake Placid, New York. This will be Graves’ ninth Olympics as either a P. A. announcer or broadcaster.
