HERSHEY, Pa. — When Brock Zearfoss quit his job as a refrigerator mechanic to start his racing career, he leaned on veteran driver Greg Hodnett to mentor him through that journey. This is Zearfoss’ second straight year of working with the MHS students. It’s a cool opportunity Milton Hershey gave Rashawn and the other kids involved and got a chance to go to the races and be a part of teams that night. That wasn’t the first time Zearfoss has worked with Hershey, though. Now, full circle, Zearfoss gets to use his story of quitting that job to follow his dream of being a race car driver as inspiration for the students to follow their own goals. “The kids, they’re going to be all ears,” Zearfoss said. Getting excitement in the kids’ faces and getting them engaged around the race car and just engaged in general.
