Junior Representative Program

The Junior Representative program is a complementary program functioning within a county to assist the dairy princess in carrying out her duties and to educate and train future princess candidates and promoters. Or, it is a program which functions in its own right, when there is no princess, to train future candidates and to provide young persons to help, when needed, with county dairy promotion activities. This program was started in the 1990s and now enlists not only young women, but young men as well. These young people are willing and able to promote an industry in which they believe in. This year numbers a group of 238 junior representatives.

These young people were trained in the what, why and how’s of dairy promotion at a one-day “Mini-Seminar” in mid July and will serve their local areas whenever needed. Many of them will subsequently become THE county royalty in future years. The program provides an opportunity to instill in these young people at an early age an awareness of the importance of Pennsylvania’s dairy industry and the need to promote its products.
