Chosen as Dairy Princess for another year



It is so hard to believe that a year has passed since my dreams came true, and I was crowned a 2012-W-Maria--PK2013 Stearns County dairy princess. This past year has been filled with so many incredible memories to last a lifetime. To quickly recap, the first large event was this past May when all six of the newly crowned dairy princesses competed at the May Event, a weekend training seminar and judging session to choose the 12 Princess Kay finalists.

Two of Stearns County’s own dairy princesses, Kirsten Meier and Christine Reitsma, were named finalists, kicking off an exciting summer for the county. June 2, was the famous Stearns County Breakfast on the Farm held at Landwehr’s Dairy in Watkins where more than 2,200 people were served breakfast and given farm tours. June Dairy Month continued on with multiple library visits, grocery store visits, and bank visits where we got to serve a lot of ice cream.

Spring sports are snowed out (temporarily)

We should be well into the spring season of sports: baseball, softball, golf, and track & field. A few indoor meets have been held, but ballfields and golf courses are still covered with snow and mud. Many games have been postponed and are being made up later in the season. Some, especially non-conference games, have been cancelled and are not being made up.

We’ve done our best to keep up with all the changes and cancellations in our sports schedule on page 24. Be sure to check each school’s website for the latest schedules. We’re itching for sports to get started, too. 

SPRING WILL COME!
