LITTLESTOWN - To
Christine Gitt, being around
cows is as natural as
promoting the products they
provide. The daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Robert Gitt, Lit
tlestown R 2, she has spent
her whole life working with
cows and showing them and
she devoted her last year
speaking up for milk at
every opportunity as Adams
County’s Dairy Princess.
As she completed her
reign, she says, “It was
always assumed that I would
enter the contest.” Never
theless, she states, “I was
really surprised when they
called my name.”
Not surprisingly, she
enjoyed making ap
pearances m the last year.
She said, “It was a
tremendous expenence, but
preparing a television commercial extolling the virtues of milk

1979 Adams County Dairy Princess will continue to
Christine Gitt ends her reign
it went so fast. I think the
contest is important. The
children will remember me
because they remembered
the former Dairy Princess.
It is very important to leave
a lasting impression. The
thing I enjoyed more than
anything was speaking in the
elementary schools.
Christine’s presentation,
which she gave a final tune
at last week’s Dairy Prin
cess contest, was a crowd
pleaser for little ones. She let
them help make a television
commercial, complete with
a movie camera which she
credits to her father’s
“creative genius.” Chrissy
get a lot of audience par
ticipation as she sings with
guitar accompaniment, and
she talks about the nutnents
in milk. The skit is so con
vincing that some students
want to know which channel
S ftin
the commercial will be on.
Here young audience have
been appreciative, Chrissy
states, adding, “The
teachers do a good job of
preparing the students. They
are really well informed.”
Chrissy did supermarket
promotions, but says, “I
didn’t find them so rewar
ding. It is hard to get a
housewife who is trying to
get through shopping in
terested m what you’re
giving out.”
One new promotion that
worked well for Chrissy was
at the Adams County
National Bank in Lit
tlestown, where she
positioned herself on a
Friday evening, passing out
milk and cheese. “I saw a lot
of friends and it really
worked out well. I got the
idea at the seminar.”
