State President’s Report - Lynnae
Greetings! Spring is in full swing
– and everyone seems to be
putting up grass or planting
corn. We all love this time of
year. I have enjoyed getting out
to some of our spring youth fairs
and seeing our youth getting
their animals ready for another
year. There is so much energy
and enthusiasm during the
spring show season. When I
attended the Lewis County
Spring Youth Fair, I had a visit
with former Lewis County Dairy
Ambassador, Jennifer Swenson.
Jennifer was selected to be a
member of this year’s National
4H Dairy Conference Planning
Committee. She and the rest of
her committee are busy working
on the 60th annual conference
for US and Canadian dairy youth
to convene in Madison this fall
in conjunction with World Dairy
Expo. Congrats to Jennifer – we
are proud of you! In addition to
youth fairs have come spring
judging clinics.
We are so
fortunate that our youth have
the opportunities to enjoy and
learn from these kinds of
activities,
a
special
life
experience that so few will ever
have. Thanks to all of the dairy
farmers and volunteers who put
these practices together for our
young people.
Are you telling your Dairy Story?
Is the public learning about what
we do from ‘us’? Kudos to Krista
Stauffer, who has a website and
Facebook page called the
Farmers Wifee – I encourage
you to like her Facebook page
and check out her website
http://thefarmerswifee.com/ab
out/ she is doing a great job of
sharing about life on a
Washington dairy farm and
‘Agvocating’.
As you know, our dear friend,
Lynne Schmoe has retired from
the Washington Dairy Products
Commission. All Dairy Women
are invited to attend a farewell
reception for Lynne, as well as
former Commission President,
Robert Smit to thank them for
their years of service to our
state’s dairy industry.
This
event is being hosted by Jim &
Delores Werkhoven, June 19th 59 pm, the address is: 17920
183rd Ave SE, Monroe, Wa
98272. We wish Lynne the very
best in her retirement and bid a
warm welcome to Erin Vincent,
the new Senior Industry
Relations and Communications
Manager for the Washington
Dairy Products Commission. We
look forward to working with
you Erin. Happy Spring to all of
you, I hope to see many of you
at our State Dairy Ambassador
Coronation next month!

State Advisor’s Report
Spring has been very busy. Erin
has been in every corner of the
state! Teacher of the Week,
farm fairs, school visits, and Fuel
Up To Play 60 bring us into the
schools. Whether it is a 30
minute presentation on Milk’s
Journey,
Sustainability and
Dairy’s Economic impact on the
State of Washington, or just a
conversation with students
about why we need “three every
day”, we leave every classroom
knowing that Erin has taught
them something new about the
dairy
industry and milk.
Students want to know the real
story. They want to know why
calcium is good for their bones.
They want to know that farmers
take great care of their animals.
They want to know that farmers
use sustainable practices. They
want to know why soy
“beverage” is NOT a dairy
product. No matter what age or
part of the state they live in, kids
WANT TO KNOW THE REAL
STORY. That is why it is so
important
for our Dairy
Ambassadors, Dairy Women and
Dairy Farmers to tell their story,
share experiences, and answer
their questions. Erin, Olivia, and
Annie have been working hard
at this and have done a
wonderful job! You can be very
proud of them!
The 2014 Washington State
Dairy Ambassador Coronation is
coming up in just a few weeks.
This year’s coronation is set for
June 20th at the Holiday Inn,
downtown Everett. Please join
us in thanking our Washington
State Dairy Ambassador, Erin
Peek, and State Alternates,
Annie Birklid and Olivia Zurcher,
for their dedication in telling the
Real Story, the story of milk!

from the Dairy Farmers of WA to
help fund their Fuel Up to Play
60 Program while taking a few
minutes to talk with all the
students about Dairy Farming
and reminding them all to get
their 3 servings of Dairy every
single day! We have even had an
assembly with Max Unger from
the Seattle Seahawks!
Hello everyone! With less than
one month until state contest I
can’t believe how fast the last
year has flown by. My schedule
has been packed with various
events all across the state and I
have enjoyed every busy minute
of it!
I have participated in many Fuel
Up to Play 60 Assemblies spread
throughout the Federal Way,
Seattle, Adna, and Spokane
School Districts. I have had the
opportunity to present the
school with the grant check
Many County Coronations have
come and gone over the last few
months and I love seeing the
new group of young ladies
entering the program excited to
start their year of service. The
nervous and excited energy
coming off of the young ladies is
always so infectious and makes
the evening even more fun and
memorable. I am excited for
them to fall in love with this
program
and
to
start
representing their region’s dairy
farmers.
This year I was able to attend
the Washington State FFA
Convention held at WSU in
Pullman. Tammi and I helped
run the Dairy Foods contest and
I had the opportunity to speak
at the first general session! I was
extremely involved in the FFA all
four years that I was in high
school and I wouldn’t be serving
as the Washington State Dairy
Ambassador if weren’t for all the
opportunities that the FFA
presented me with so being able
to speak at this year’s
convention meant so much to
me and has definitely been one
of the most memorable events
of my year so far!
Another WIAA sport season has
come and gone with many
championship
games
for
ambassadors to attend. I was
able to attend State 3A/4A
Baseball
this
year
and
appreciated all the help from my
fellow ambassadors to have
representation at every event
that we could possibly attend.
I have also been busy in recent
weeks
with
school
presentations!
Though
intimidating at times high school
presentations have become
something I really enjoy doing.
When engaged the students
have many questions and we are
able to have a great classroom
discussion at the end of my
presentation about the dairy
industry. These experiences
have only helped to ensure that
teaching high school agriculture
is something that I want to do in
my
lifetime!
Elementary
presentations are fun as well
and the kids always manage to
say something that surprises
me! But I get to teach them
about the importance of dairy in
their diets and where milk
comes from and they always
seem to be excited about dairy
products by then end of the
presentation!
One of my favorite things about
my year so far has been all of
the people that I have been able
to meet and build relationships
with! From consumers to dairy
farmers to dairy women to dairy
ambassadors I have met some
incredible people who serve as
great role models in my life
showing me that I can
accomplish anything if I have the
passion too to do it. I am so
honored to say that I have, and
currently am, representing the
Dairy Farmers of Washington.
Thank you to all the Dairy
Women for supporting and
helping me throughout my year
of service and for helping to
provide
me
with
this
opportunity! It is something that
I am sure you hear all the time
but “Once a dairy ambassador
always a dairy ambassador” and
I really will be a lifelong
ambassador for milk!

are truly talented! I also have
been very busy at the University

Wow, summer is upon us and
my year as an Alternate State
Dairy Ambassador is coming to a
close. These past few months I
have been going to multiple
WIAA events such as Basketball
and Dance and Drill at the
Yakima Sundome. It was very
fun to be able to watch all of the
great to talk to all of these
students about the dairy
industry. Later on this May, I will
be attending multiple Spring
WIAA
events
in
Eastern
Washington.
It
will
be
bittersweet, as these WIAA
events will be my last as a Dairy
Ambassador. I will also be
delivering baby baskets for the
first baby born in June in Othello
and Moses Lake. I am excited
about the rest my term and I
know that contest will be a lot of
fun and many memories will be
made. I hope all of you are
enjoying the wonderful spring
weather!

memorable events. Some of my
favorite events were WIAA
events. My all-time favorite
event was WIAA boys swimming
where I was able to watch my
friend Bennon Vanhoof place in
the top eight in the state and
hand him his medal. Some
other WIAA events I went to
were Bowling, Soccer, and Girls
Swimming and Diving.
It has been ten months since I
have been crowned one of your
Washington State Alternate
Dairy Ambassadors. Although
ten months seems like a long
time, it has been the quickest
ten months of my life. And to
think I will be giving up my
crown in two months. I have
been to so many fun and
We passed out 30,000 meatballs
at the WSU Football game
sponsored
by
the
Beef
Commission “Go Cougs” and
Dairy Days at the Legislature
where Erin did a wonderful job
promoting
the
Dairy
Industry…and I must say “Erin
you looked very comfortable in
those
big
chairs…Maybe
Secretary of State Erin Peek or
Governor Erin Peek….what do
you think?”
I went to healthy kids’ day at the
YMCA in Bothell where I got to
talk to many kids and played the
milk toss game with them.
I would like to thank the
Washington State Dairy Women
and the Dairy Farmers of
Washington for sponsoring this
program. This is truly a life
changing program, I have made
lifelong friends and I am so
happy that I got to be a part of
it.

Grays Harbor
The Grays Harbor Dairy Women
do not have a new ambassador
for 2014; we will hope for
someone again next year. Our
2013 ambassador Colby Trusty
finished up her year with a
kindergarten presentation to 3
classes at the Elma grade school
on April 24th and a fun farm tour
at the Goeres Farm on April 25th.
This was her first event last year
and she once again worked with
the Elma FFA to organize and
put on this fun event for all that
attended.
The buses brought over 100
kindergarten students, parents
and teachers… and the rain held
off for the day. We would like
to thank Colby for her year as
our County dairy ambassador.
Colby has completed her term
as county ambassador and
elected to not attend the state
contest.

Farm Store Open House the first
weekend of April was a good
opportunity for our girls to
introduce themselves to our
agricultural
community,
followed by the Holstein Sale

the next weekend. The Spring

WIAA State 1A basketball in
Yakima
with
Olivia,
the
Washington State Alternate
Ambassador. Both girls did a
great job and enjoyed an
exciting day of action on the
hard
courts.
The
Spring
Quarterly
Dairy
Women's
meeting was held in our neck of
the woods, so Heather Zurcher
attended the meeting in Yakima.
On April 24th, we held our
farewell dinner for Keestan,
thanks to Dan, at the Camano
Island Cattle Company's lodge in
Othello. It was a nice potluck
dinner event in which Keestan
gave her farewell speech to
about 30 people. She did a
great job representing the MidColumbia, even with her busy
schedule at the running start
program at CBC and sports in
Othello. She is attending BYU
this fall in Provo, Utah.
Unfortunately, we do not have a
new ambassador for this
upcoming year but we are
always looking for potential girls
for future years. Our next event
is delivering our baby baskets to
Othello Memorial Hospital and
Moses
Lake
Hospital
to
celebrate June Dairy Month.
Our ladies really enjoy collecting
items for these baskets and
even Tina Decker makes 2
beautiful baby blankets each
year to give to the babies. We
are lucky again this year to be
able to have Olivia present the
baskets to the mothers and the
babies. We now look forward to
the busy months coming up with
the fair season beginning!
Mid-Columbia
It is now spring in the MidColumbia! The fields are green,
waiting for the first cutting of
hay, the sun is shining, and the
wind has arrived like clockwork.
Our ladies have held several
meetings, of course with their
husbands, enjoying each other's
company and a great meal. We
have even met for a luncheon in
Moses Lake with just the ladies,
which wasn't a scheduled
meeting!

annual carnival for dairy
products. We also hosted and
served the lunch at the March
18th robotic milker open house
at
our

Our most exciting news is that
we have 3 wonderful young
ladies representing us as dairy
ambassadors for the 2014-15
year.
Our
new
county
ambassador is Katie Jo Connley,
equal alternate ambassadors are
Megan Sybrandy and Riley
VanderVeen.
We
had
a
wonderful evening dessert
coronation, well attended and
beautifully decorated. Our MC
Shelley Flaig did an outstanding
job.
Our unit scholarship recipients
this year were Simon LeClair,
son of Annette LeClair, Jared
Fohn, son of Rhonda Fohn and
grandson of Bertha Fohn, Ashley
Dykstra, member and daughterin-law of Sandy Dykstra, and
Abby Lohman, daughter of
Annie

Outgoing dairy ambassador,
Chelsea Hansen, will now run for
state in June 2014. We all wish
her the best. She has been busy
continuing to go to schools and
speaking at events. She and our
new ambassadors were in the
Holland Happenings parade in
Oak Harbor.
We have been asked by a local
bank to make cookies(with real
butter of course) for an open
house
they
are
having.
We will soon be attending a
state wardrobe showing for
Chelsea Hansen and seeing her
presentations.

On Saturday April 5th we
crowned three new girls:
Ambassador, Olivia Russell from
Stanwood,
and
Alternates,
Nicole Buell from Marysville and
Larissa Ablutz from Monroe. All
three girls have been active
showing dairy animals at the
fairs in either 4-H or FFA. We
look forward to working with
these three remarkable young
ladies.
Our day consisted of the usual
interviews, speeches and getting
to know each other along with
an outreach at the Everett
YMCA and lunch at Anthony’s.
Our evening coronation was at
the Everett Holiday Inn where
we met our candidates, heard
from our out-going ambassadors
Marcy Bartelheimer and Mikel
Levi, and State Ambassador Erin
Peek. In addition we recognized
our county dairy farmers with a
reading of “So God Made a
Farmer” and gave each farmer
in attendance a small gift. We
were happy to have so many of
our dairy farmers there to help
us celebrate Dairy Farming in
Snohomish County. We also
inducted two of our farmers into
the Dairy Shrine. The Honoree
inductee was the late Mark
Hereth who was remembered
for his commitment to his
family, his farm and his church
as well as the many youth that
he encouraged. Duane Kulman
was named this year’s Pioneer
honoree for the impact he has
had on the Jersey Breed.
We donated $50 to each of the
Snohomish County Food Banks
for Dairy Products, and also
made donations to the Oso and
Darrington Fire Departments
and also to the Oso slide victims.
Both
of
our
out-going
ambassadors will be competing
for State Dairy Ambassador. We
will be having their shower at
our May Dairy Women Meeting.
Thurston County
Hi all,
I attended our recent WSDW
Spring Quarterly meeting in
Yakima, it was very informative
and enjoyed having a joint
session with the Federation and
Dairy Products Commission. It
was nice seeing all the ladies
and sharing a ride with Gloria.
We have a couple of members
dealing with health issues: first
Terry Wilson is recovering from
early stage breast cancer and we
are all relieved with the good
news received from her doctors.
Terry Mensonides, one of our
members for many years, has
had double knee replacement
surgery and now is battling a
flesh eating bacteria…. Our
thoughts and prayers are with
her and her family. Her husband
is still recovery from a bout with
cancer. Please keep all of these
in our dairy family in your
prayers.

Busy, busy, busy!!! That’s how
spring came in Whatcom
County. February and March
welcomed workshops for 5 girls
running
for
our
Dairy
Ambassador position.
On
March 21, the new slate of girls
was chosen: Amanda Howe as
Ambassador,
and
LaKrista
Buckley and Ellie Steensma as
alternate dairy ambassadors.
Fox Hall at the Hampton Inn in
Bellingham saw a packed house
that evening as we culminated a
day full of interviews, outreach,
lunch,
speeches,
and
impromptus. It is always a very
busy time, but still remains an
exciting and fun evening spent
celebrating the dairy industry
and the girls who are chosen to
represent that way of life. We
barely got our feet back on the
ground and were off to shopping
and
the
Skagit
County
Coronation the next Monday,
and a week later the Snohomish
Coronation had us on the road
again.
Our own Whatcom
County Youth Fair was also that
weekend which proved to be
very busy for our girls who were
showing and helping with ice
cream and butter making
classes. On April 22, 23, and 24
the Whatcom County Dairy
Women welcomed 1,250 first
graders and 560 adults to the
annual Milk Makers Fest, now in
its 22nd year. All kids leave
with activity books, pencils,
erasers, and a fair pass and
voucher for a free ice cream
cone.
Washington State
Ambassador
Erin
Peek
presented on Tuesday, followed
by our own new ambassadors
on Wednesday and Thursday.
Almost all of our Whatcom
county ladies are involved with
this event in some form or
another,
whether
it
is
organizing, putting up posters,
talking to kids, chaperoning,
group leading, serving lunch, or
volunteering husbands to drive
tractors. It seems more like our
social event that heralds the
start of spring and summer!
Our
ladies
also
proudly
presented
Pauline
VanWeerdhuizen with a plaque
honoring her with lifetime
membership since she has been
a loyal member since 1969.
Come rain or shine we usually
see Pauline’s smiling face and
hear her words of support at
Milk Makers and the Fair among
other events.
Years of
supporting the dairy industry is a
goal that we can all strive to
achieve.
While we anticipate the sound
of tractors in the fields, we also
will be looking forward to
parades, and of course, state
contest.
We wish our
contestant, Janis DeJager, the
best as she pursues the State
title in June. Hopefully many of
us will be attending and will
renew acquaintances from
around the state.
