Kadence Toland graduated from Eureka High School and has been at Redwood Acres Raceway since she was 12 years old. Her career in racing began as a pit crew member for Bill Walters’ late model. Eventually, Kadence drove in the Bandoleros where she currently holds the track record. Kadence currently races in the bomber division. Kadence plans to attend College Of The Redwoods and major in Administration Of Justice. After that, she intends to complete her education at the Montana Law Enforcement Academy.
