CALIFORNIA DAIRY DISTRICTS SEEK AMBASSADORS TO SERVE AS 2018 DAIRY PRINCESESSES
Tracy, Calif., January 11, 2018 – Each year, a special group of young women are selected to
represent the state’s more than 1,300 dairy farm families who contribute to making California
number one for milk production in the U.S. The 2018 contests will be held April through June.
Districts select a winner and alternates based on judging criteria, such as knowledge of and
enthusiasm for the industry. See below for application details and contest dates.
California Dairy Princesses serve as industry advocates in their home district and the state of
California, building a favorable public image for milk and dairy products through appearances at
industry and agricultural functions, school groups and in media interviews. Dairy Princesses and
alternates participate in a mandatory orientation/training, July 9-12, 2018, in which they receive
professional development coaching.
The California Dairy Princess Program has been in effect for many years and is sponsored by
California dairy producers through the California Milk Advisory Board. Application forms can
be obtained online at www.californiadairypressroom.com/ca-dairy-princesses. Questions can be
directed to the CMAB office at cmacedo@cmab.net or 209.690.8240. For more information on
