Bobby Bones Gets Hometown Welcome While Presenting Scholarship at Former High School in Arkansas

NASHVILLE, May 20, 2015 – Bobby Bones, host of the award-winning Bobby Bones Show, visited his former high school in Arkansas on May 18 to present the first-ever “Bobby Bones Don’t Be Skipping Class” annual scholarship to Ryan Graves, a senior at Mountain Pine High School.  Bones also gave the keynote address at the school’s graduation commencement, where he shared: “I sat where you’re sitting, I know what you’re feeling. People never told me I couldn’t do something, but there weren’t a lot of people who told me I could do anything. You can do anything you want. The key is finding something that you love to do."
 
In addition, Bones got a few surprises while he was in town - the high school presented him with a plaque naming May 18 “Bobby Bones Day,” and the city added a sign on the highway entering Mountain Pine that says “Welcome to the Boyhood Home of Bobby Bones.”
