"Howdy there, folks! My name is Junior Dugan and I'll be drivin' your diving bell!" I played Junior Dugan at the diving bell from 1979-1984, and would love to respond to those on this site that have an interest in the old attraction. As a former "insider" I can answer most all of your questions about the diving bell. I worked with Terry Sanders and Bob Nichols, both are now prominent Branson entertainers. I also worked at the Jim Owens' Float Trip Ride in '79, and worked with OLD GUY when he did the puppet show at the Vineyard in the late '70's! I've had a chance to visit this site as a guest since it went online in '07, but until now I did not have the chance to become a member. I hope to post a lot of old photos from my scrapbook on this site, if anyone is interested. Lots of shots of SDC in the 1970's and 1980's. So Howdy to all at SDC Fans, and I hope to "chat" with you from time to time! Respond to my postings and I will get back to you within a few days, I usually check this website three or four times a week.
