Lisha Mummert
(Continued from Pago B 2)
iled an area nursery school to talk
with pre-schoolers about milk and
dairy products. A cheese promo
tion and sampling was well
received by customers at a local
hardware store. And congratulat
ing show winners with ribbons at
both the Adams County and Ship
pensburg district 4-H roundups
was a special pleasure for Lisha,
who showed cattle as a young 4-H
member.
“We also had a dairy promotion
at the Caledonia golf course,”
relates Lisha of a somewhat diffe
rent sort of commodity event
shared with the apple promotion
program. “We handed out cheese
to the golfers. They really seemed
to enjoy it and it was a lot of fun to
do.”
“Do you really live in a castle?”
a wide-eyed little girl asked Lisha
during a visit she and Jayne Hess
did with children of migrant farm
workers employed in the county.

New Oxford were equally friendly
and receptive as she shared dairy
tips.
But despite her training and
experience with promotion, Lisha
admits to being suiprised at one
unexpected request at an appear
ance that she give autographs.
She quickly regained her compo
sure and complied, signing her
name on dairy recipe leaflets she
had been sharing.
Though Lisha has a busy col
lege schedule for the next few
months, she plans to continue her
dairy promotion with newspaper
articles and appearances that can
be scheduled on weekends. Her
princess role dovetails with Lis
ha’s major studies in college,
focusing on communications and
marketing, with a lesser emphasis
on health and fitness courses. As a
field hockey player, she moved to
Western Maryland College two
weeks prior to the start of classes
for pre-season practices and con
tinues to run several miles daily

for training.
Fitness and sports were an
important part of Lisha’s high
school years. She played on New
Oxford High School’s field hock
ey, basketball and track and field
teams. Lisha was equally comfort
able in student leadership roles,
elected for several years to the stu
dent council, serving as its secret
ary when she was a junior, and
vice-president in her-senior year.
She was also president of the var
sity club, and chosen by fellow
students for such honors as sopho
more princess and homecoming
queen.
“I was lucky to be able to do all
the things I could during high
school,” Lisha says with apprecia
tion for her family’s support. “I
think it’s good to be involved in
your school and your
community.”
That family support continues
with Lisha’s added responsibili
ties as dairy princess. Her mother
assists with her dairy promotion
events, while other family mem
bers, like 16-year-old brother

Lisha will turn her full attention to
the demands of college and its

Mummert farm and she does come

range from foreign exchange vis
its to specialized courses in specif
ic studies. In her junior year at
high school, Lisha visited France
and Spain with a group of students
from her French class. She
enjoyed the European culture and
was especially impressed with the
amount of walking, rather than
automobile use, to get from place
to place in the cities.
Most of her traveling for the
next few months will be closer to
home, as Lisha visits Adams
County classrooms, retail centers,
and agriculture events. With her
interest in athletics and the out
doors, she is already looking for
ward to the dairy promotions at
local ski areas.
For Adams County Dairy Prin
cess, Lisha Mummert, a busy
schedule is probably only going to
get busier for awhile.
