Graeves Auto & Tire

For more than 70 years, Graeves Auto & Tire has been a cornerstone of the Olney community.

Since 1952, three generations of the Graeves family have been the friendly faces behind the counter—first Ralph, then Scott, and now Kyle.

Kyle grew up in Olney and has watched Olney Days grow “exponentially” over the years. To him, Olney Days is more than a collection of events—it’s about bringing people together.

“Olney Days is a great event,” Kyle says. “It provides a great sense of community. That’s why Olney Days is put on.”

That sense of community is something Kyle knows well. In Olney, he says, “everybody knows everybody.” And, just like Olney Days brings people back year after year, he believes that when you treat customers the right way, “they keep coming back.”

Family-owned businesses like Graeves Auto & Tire are an important part of what gives Olney its small-town character. Olney Civic Fund is grateful to Graeves for being a longtime supporter of Olney Days and for helping make our community celebrations possible.

Thank you, Graeves Auto & Tire, for being part of the Olney community for more than seven decades—and for helping keep the Olney tradition going!
