Kenny HolmesThe voters of Indian River County have a wonderful opportunity as we go to the polls for this important election. Kenny Holmes, an Indian River native whom I have known and loved for some 20 years, is a candidate for county commissioner.
After he graduated from the University of Miami, he played for the Tennessee Titans and the New York Giants, but home for Kenny has always been here in our community. Once Kenny was established in the NFL, he quietly but effectively found ways to “give back” to the community that he loves and appreciates. He called his high school coach and asked if the school needed weight equipment. Kenny not only purchased the equipment from the New York Mets, but he had it shipped to Vero Beach and paid for it to be set up properly in the weight room for all the student athletes’ use.
Kenny brought teammates from the Miami Hurricanes and raised money for many local charities at a fun basketball game; he organized and paid for yearly Gifford Community Fun Days; he funded a reading/tutoring program at the Gifford Community Center in honor of his mother.
Now that Kenny Holmes lives here year-round, he is a volunteer coach and role model at his old high school. Please join our family in voting for Kenny Holmes as he seeks to “tackle the issues” in this challenging political environment.
