MIFFLINTOWN -- The Juniata County Dairy Promotion Committee is seeking members to serve on the 2022-2023 Juniata County Dairy Princess Court.

Qualified young women and men engage in a year of service through the Dairy Promotion Program on behalf of Juniata County's dairy industry. In the state of Pennsylvania, approximately 300 youth with dairy industry connections publicly represent dairy foods and farmers while learning career and communication skills through promotion events and training at the county and state level.

Serving as a diary promoter is an honor and an education -- equally beneficial to the individual, the industry and the dairy consumer.

Candidates must be a resident of Juniata County, connected somehow to the dairy industry and have a desire to promote the industry. A Princess candidate must be at least 16 years of age by July 1 and not reach her 24th birthday by Dec. 31. She must be single, never married, have no children and must not marry or become pregnant during her reign.

The Juniata County Dairy Promotion Committee is also seeking junior representatives who should be between the ages of 4 and 16. Deadline for submitting applications is May 1, 2022. The committee is also seeking interested people to serve on the Juniata County Dairy Promotion Committee to lend support and help with the planning of promotions.

The crowning of the 2022-2023 Juniata County Dairy Princess will take place at the Walker Grange, Mexico, Pa. , on May 22.
