Dallas Sims, who was born without a left hand, learns to kick his legs up with help from Mary Hannah Alexander of Wings Gymnastics. Alexander was a volunteer Saturday at the Step Up Squad Adaptive Camp at Zen House in the Cooper Young area. The camp is for children who were born with limb issues, including missing limbs and dwarfism. (Greg Campbell/Special to The Daily Memphian)
