About OK Kids Korral
OK Kids Korral is a haven for the entire family as a child with cancer receives treatment.

OK Kids Korral provides daytime and overnight lodging for pediatric patients and their families.

Major League Drone Racing(MLDR) is a professional American Drone Racing League, World Wide Sports Entertainment, and Branding Company. The league is currently in development and will consist of 32 teams, divided equally between the Western Drone Racing Conference (WDRC) and the Eastern Drone Racing Conference (EDRC).
“Drone racing turns flying drones into a competitive sport. Drone operators wear a head-mounted display such as goggles that connect directly to a camera on board the drone they are flying. This camera transmits a Livestream feed from the drone to the headset meaning the pilot can navigate from the drone’s eye view.”
Joseph Singleton is a contributing author and online editor for Whirlocal South OKC, Moore, and Norman, as well as the Ops Guru at HITE.
