June Dairy Day hits the spot By GINA KINSLOWGlasgow Daily Times Also on hand for the event was Megan Bailey, Barren County Dairy Princess 2007, an honor she received by participating in a speech contest during the annual picnic for area dairy farmers.
Bailey’s speech was on how agriculture and the diary industry in particular has affected her life and helped form the person she is now. “I think any kid who has been raised on a farm or has been involved in things like June Dairy Day has learned responsibility and has learned way of life that maybe other people don’t appreciate, and I think it builds not only your work enthusiasm but everything you try to do in your life,” she said. Saturday’s event was just one of many activities held throughout the month to honor area dairy farmers. “We’ve had three throughout the month starting off with the kick-off breakfast and later our dairy farmer cookout and ending it with our June Dairy Celebration, which is the dairy farmer’s salute to everyone who uses the dairy products,” said Gary Tilghman, Barren County’s agriculture extension agent. “Barren County is blessed to have such a large dairy organization and a group of folks that is a lot of fun to hold June Dairy month activities here. We’re greatly appreciative of the support the diary industry has and we look forward to continuing the progress with that and hope that our dairy farmers continue to have the success.”
