Debunking milk myths

“Smile and say cheese!” exclaimed Lindsay Young, aiming a camera at the gathered audience at the Ward O'Hara Agricultural Museum as she stepped to the podium while still competing for the title of the 2006 Cayuga County Dairy Princess.

Little did she know she had already been selected to wear the crown which would be announced moments later.

Earlier in the day she and three other candidates had vied for the title before the judges at Springside Inn. At a brunch, held in their honor, Katelyn Minde, Heidi Dougherty, Molly O'Hara and Young delivered their thoughts on all things dairy and how they would help promote the industry if selected to the position.
