Congratulations! As you begin your reign as a county or breed association dairy princess, ambassador, or alternate, let me be one of the first to congratulate you and wish you well this year. My name is Mariah Busta, and I coordinate the Iowa Dairy Princess Program on behalf of Midwest Dairy. I would like to share some information so you can plan ahead for your year.
- Please complete the Iowa Princess/Ambassador contact form below. This ensures that you will be on mailing lists for future state program updates.
- Plan to attend the annual orientation session for all new princesses, ambassadors, and alternates to be held in June 2026. This training session will be an interactive workshop with strategies and tips for successful communications, including presentations and social media outreach. We will also provide an overview of the 2026-27 Iowa Dairy Princess contest and answer any questions that you may have. Watch for more details!
- Watch the Iowa Dairy Princess page on Facebook for announcements of upcoming events and notifications when orientation or state contest forms are available.
- If you are planning to participate in the state contest, mark your calendar. The 2026-27 State Iowa Dairy Princess Contest will be held August 11-12 at the Courtyard by Marriott in Ankeny, Iowa. The coronation ceremony will be on the evening of August 12 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines.
Feel free to contact me with any questions. You can reach me at 563-449-2414 or mbusta@midwestdairy.com.
