The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) on Friday announced the six top candidates to become the 78th Alice in Dairyland. The candidates are Allison Foster, Michelle Stangler, Mikayla Flyte, Natalie Roe, Olivia Lulich, and Sarah Hagenow.
Over the next two months, the candidates will participate in an interview process that will allow them to showcase the communications and public relations skills required for the position. All will receive media and speaking training and earn a DATCP marketing and communications certificate.
This training process will prepare the candidates for the Alice in Dairyland Finals, which are scheduled for May 15-17 and include agribusiness tours, media interviews, an impromptu question-and-answer session, candidate presentations, and more. The selection of the 78th Alice in Dairyland will be announced at a public event on May 17 at the Performing Arts Center in Prairie du Chien, and the selected candidate will begin her term on July 7.
