New Princess Kay crowned
The 62nd Princess Kay of the Milky Way is a 19 year old from Wright County. Kyla Mauk of Howard Lake is looking forward to representing hard working dairy farmers like her dad.
“My dad is the most hard-working man I’ve ever met, and now I get to represent 3,600 dairy farm families that work hard everyday to produce that wholesome, nutritious food, just like my dad.”
She says being named Princess Kay is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
“Being able to advocate for the dairy community with eleven amazing individuals (the Princess Kay finalists) has been a once-in-a-lifetime experience.”
In the next year, Mauk will speak on behalf of Minnesota dairy producers and hopes to educate consumers about the industry.
“I really hope to teach them about how hard-working dairy farmers are, and how they’re working 365 days a year to make sure everyone is getting a nutritious food. Dairy products are one of the most nutritious foods that we can get.”
Mauk will be a sophomore at South Dakota State University this fall, pursuing a degree in agriculture education.
