Open Dairy Princess Competition In County Entries for the 1977 McHenry County Dairy Princess contest are being accepted now, Larry Harris, secretary of the McHenry County Dairy Promotion council, has an­ nounced. Because candidates will make their first appearance at the Harvard Milk day parade, the committee has established 4:30 p.m. June 2 as the entry deadline. Entry blanks and contest rules are available from office personnel at the Farm Bureau office. Several activities have been planned for June Dairy month, and the new Dairy Princess will be a guest at the 1977 American Dairy Association of Illinois contest in August. Next year-in 1978-she will represent the McHenry County Dairy Promotion council in the statewide contest following a year of experience in dairy promotion here, Harris said. Connie Harrison, reigning McHenry County Dairy Princess, is home from Illinois State university and began dairy promotion activities with talks and news media ap­ pearances last week. Connie will be the county's representative in the ADA of Illinois Dairy Princess contest in August this year. Candidates for the McHenry County Dairy Princess contest must be between 17-22, a high school graduate as of June 29, and either living on a farm or have lived on a farm. "We know from experience we have many young women who used to live on a dairy farm but no longer enjoy that carefree life. Their families may have moved to town or father transferred to another occupation. They are still eligible," explained Harris. The 1977 dairy banquet will be held June 29 when the new Dairy Princess will be crowned by Miss Harrison. Candidates will make a second appearance following the Harvard Milk day parade when they serve dairy products to McHenry County board members June 21.
