60 years of Wright County Dairy Princesses

This year we celebrated the 60 Years of Wright County Dairy Princesses. I was truly amazed to be apart of it. I say that because when I was nine years old I saw my sister crowned for the last time at the 50th Dairy Princess Banquet. I never imagined that I would be a Princess 10 years after her (it felt like forever). Now Here I am to say I am one of the 60th Dairy Princesses. It was really great to share this with my sister and to be able to see some of the girls she was crowned with. It has been 60 years now and the program is still going strong.

Becoming a Princess

Every little girl's dream is to one day become a princess. Little did I know I would be able to grow up in the eyes of princesses and being a royal sister, princess in training, and official photographer. I was able to see my sister crowned not only once but four times. I able to experience the parades, coronations, promotional events, and most of all being surround by princesses. Once I saw all that my sister experienced as royalty my dream became real. I dreamed that I too would be apart of that experience in the sparkle section, have little girls look up to you, and sharing my passion with everyone I met. Last year was when I began to make it my reality. I had the privilege of becoming a candidate for my town and county fair. I felt that God had a plan for me. I did not know if these programs would be apart of it but I knew the experience would be. Even though I was not one chosen by the judges for those titles but God had a different plan for me. Being a princess is more than the crown, the sash, and the dresses so I still can represent my home town and county fair in my life.

 April of 2014 my dream came true and reality. I had the honor to become a 2014-2015 Dairy Princess. I knew I would one day run to represent the dairy industry and I am so grateful to give back to a passion of mine. When I applied I knew I was in for a wild adventure but little did I know that the girls I met would be such amazing young women who represent their communities and festivals wonderfully. I would be able to travel Wright County promote dairy and being a spokesperson for the dedicated farmers of the dairy industry.

Being a princess is about who you are and what you believe in. I believe that the dairy industry is something that is a benefit to society even if some people say it is not. I grew up around dairy farm and being able to see where milk products truly comes from is a blessing. I thankful that we can have milk products that can provide us with nine essential nutrients, like Calcium and Vitamin A & D, in just one serving.

Now on April 11, 2015 I was chosen to be a Dairy Princess for a second year. God has truly blessed me with this amazing experience. I am able to continue to be an advocate for the dairy industry. Through out this year I hope to share my experience as a 2015-2016 Wright County Dairy Princess.  

God Blessings and continue to support your local dairy farms,
