Once a Dairy Promoter, Always a Dairy Promoter

Written by: Rachael Grosvenor, Pennsylvania State Alternate Dairy Princess

In just a few short days my time as the Susquehanna County Dairy Princess will come to an end.  I cannot believe that it has been a year already since the crown was placed on my head.  It feels like it was just yesterday when I was at my very first dairy promotion - I was so nervous!  Now here I am at the end of my reign.

Pennsylvania State Alternate Dairy Princess 

I have learned much and have had many incredible experiences.  Speaking at schools or meetings, giving demonstrations on all things dairy, or serving dairy products at different banquets were just some of the events I had the pleasure of participating in.  My favorite part of this past year, though, was meeting and talking with members of our community.  I have always believed that our community is more than just a community.  We are a family, and my year of interacting with hundreds of people solidified that belief in my mind.  Thank you for being so supportive of me, our local farmers and businesses, and the dairy industry.  Promoting dairy products would not have been as easy, or as fun, if the people in Susquehanna County were not behind me. 

I have heard the phrase, “Once a princess, always a princess,” dozens of times, and though this may or may not be true, I would like to say “Once a dairy promoter, always a dairy promoter.”  Even though my time as Susquehanna County Dairy Princess is almost through, my support and promotion of the dairy industry is only beginning.

As I continue on with my State Dairy Princess duties, I hope to continue growing the relationship that I have with many of you.  Thank you for giving me the opportunity to represent the amazing dairy industry in Susquehanna County this past year.  I wish the next princess the best of luck in her coming reign.
