Arlene will be leading our Drone Legends drone racing team at Woodford County Schools, bringing her trademark blend of precision, patience, and just the right spark of competitive fire. With Arlene at the helm, students won’t just learn to fly drones — they’ll master teamwork, strategy, and split-second problem-solving as they tear through high-speed obstacle courses that’ll make Mario Kart look like a lazy Sunday drive. Her coaching is set to transform this team into a tight-knit crew of future pilots, engineers, and innovators, proving that with the right leader, the sky isn’t the limit — it’s just the starting line.
