ESPN is lending a hand to high schools across the nation as part of its Rise Up TV program, a kind of Extreme Makeover TV show for high school athletic programs,
and one wood flooring company lucky enough to be invited along on a recent episode was Graf Brothers Flooring Inc. (South Shore, Ky.).
ESPN sought to remodel the weight room at Ohio's Wellston High School, and Graf Brothers donated 400 square feet of white oak wood flooring that was later applied to one of the weight room's walls. "ESPN approached us with an opportunity that we couldn't turn down, and we were willing to help in any way we could," said the company's President Dave Graf.
