    2. Hi Dagmar My name is John Price and I sent the post re Ann Hardy but I'm afraid my computer skills are not the best and I selected the wrong option from the list!! I will also forward this article to Ann as she may have some photos which she could share

  2. I took trampoline lessons from Doug Dawkins in the late 1950s in Hawaii. In Kailua/Kaneohe. Is this the same Doug Dawkins?

    1. That very well might be the same person! Do you remember the name of the school/club where you had the trampoline lessons with Coach Dawkins? If you, please share it :-)

  3. I was at this meet. I competed on the trampoline in the girls 10 & under plus the synchronized trampoline(11-12). I have a 5th Place Ribbon. I think I also have a patch. My coach was Jerry Clark from Springfield, Illinois.

    I have a video taken prior to us leaving Springfield that my father took. We were being videoed for the Local Channel 20 news. I have some news articles from some of the meets. I will look in my box.
