Sports
Tanya
Julian
who
graduated
from
Dora
High
School
in
1988
has
many
reasons
to
be
proud
of
her
son
Aaron.
He
is
an
excellent
athlete
and
in
fact
he
just
made
the
all-stars
for
the
third
time.
Aaron
played
this
week
and
had
his
best
showing
at
the
plate.
He went 3 for 3 with a single, triple, and one walk. He brought in two runners,
made three runs of his own and stole six bases.
He has played little league baseball for seven years. He also plays football
for three years as starting defensive end and offensive line. He average two
tackles a game (all for losses) and recorded one sack.
He plays for the Newbury Black Knights in Newbury Ohio. His athletic abilities
earned him a physical fitness award from President Barrack Obama. In July we
are moving back to Dora and in August he will become a Bulldog when he joins
Dora's youth football. His grandparents are Billy and Denise Julian. |

Update
2009
If
someone
had
told
me
where
I
would
be
today on
that
warm
Summer
graduation
night
in
1989,
I likely
would
not
have
believed
it.
I
can
still
remember
accepting
my
diploma
from
Principal
Jim
Crump
on
graduation
night
at
Horace
Roberts
Field
like
it
was
yesterday.
Twenty
years
have
passed
and
that
seems
incredibly
hard
to
believe.
I have now served 11 years on active duty in the United States Air Force. After
serving four years at Grand Forks AFB, ND and seven years at Maxwell AFB,
AL, my service has now delivered me to Okinawa, Japan's Kadena AFB. I have been
stationed on the Island for 3 months. I like to refer to this place
as paradise because I am unsure if I have seen one of God's creations that has
as much beauty as Okinawa. I have included some photos to share some of that
beauty with all of you.
My education has continued since graduating from Dora thanks to the Air Force.
I completed an Associate in Applied Science Degree from the Community College
of the Air Force in 2007. I followed that with a Bachelor of Science in Human
Resource Development from Southwestern College and I am currently working
on a Master's Degree.
It would be terrific to hear from some former DHS classmates. If you want to
drop me a line, please feel free to do so at glover.21@hotmail.com.
Hope to hear from some of you soon.

Where
Are
They
Now
I
sent
out
an
appeal
recently
asking
Dora
graduates
to
give
us
an
update
on
where
they
are
and
what
they’ve
been
doing.
I
wasn’t
sure
if
anyone
would
respond
but
we
got
a
few
responses
and
I’ll
be
posting
them
as
they
come
in.
If
you’ve
changed
jobs,
gotten
married,
gotten
divorced,
selling
a
cow,
moving,
opened
a
new
business,
had
children,
grand
children,
or
anything
else,
let
us
know.
Thanks
in
advance. |
