Kyle Debrucque was named J. Blaine Blayton Elementary School’s Volunteer of the Year for coaching the Engineering Club’s KidWind competition teams.
He started volunteering in December to help his stepson with the club’s project on clean energy design.
The fifth-grade team, the Honey Whirlers, placed second at the Virginia State KidWind Challenge last month.
The team and Debrucque are now traveling to Phoenix for the World KidWind Challenge next week.
Debrucque found the experience rewarding and plans to continue volunteering.
