to Lori and her parents for the dedi
cation they have shown during the

literature distribution and the
many other duties required of a
dairy princess.

affairs where milk promotion
sometimes came in the form of
punch and giant banana splits. At
other times Lori lectured on the
health risks of too little calcium.
