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.

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.
