Completing the team as Alternate Dairy Princesses are Kaylah Gulley and Julia Steidle. Megan is the daughter of Janice and Art Coldwell of Salem. Kaylah is the daughter of Kate and Chad Gulley of Greenwich. Julia, the daughter of Colleen and Ray Steidle of Argyle, was partic- ipating in a drama club event and was unable to be at the pageant. As part of the process, each applicant was interviewed by a team of judges, gave a 3-5 minute speech and answered an impromptu question. As the crowd noted, the judges had a tough decision. The outgoing team of Lauren Quick of Granville, Margaret Brownell of Greenwich and Bridget Burch of Hartford gave thank you speeches reflecting on their year of dairy promotion and service. They also acknowledged the more than 40 Dairy Ambassadors who participate in the program growing life skills, learning lessons and gaining self-confidence all while promoting dairy products. Please congratulate all of these young ladies and raise a glass of milk with them as they set off on a year of discovery. The Washington County Dairy Princess program is supported by dairy check off dollars and donations for the local dairy and agri-business community.
