2012 Nebraska Dairy Princess Application

Chandra Mosel was crowned Nebraska's Dairy Princess on March 17, 2011 in Grand Island.  She is the 19-year-old daughter of Randy and Jolene Mosel of Mo-Day Farms, Inc., near Neligh, Neb.  Chandra is a sophomore at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln.  She is working on her bachelor's degree in hospitality, restaurant and tourism management.  She has been a senator and president for her college dorm in Lincoln, and has been on the William H. Thompson Scholars Dean’s List.  During her 11 years in 4-H, she showed cattle at the county, district and state levels. 

Chandra says:  “The dairy industry is a vital part of our world today.  Economically, we have just come through one of the toughest times in history.  However, we are resilient and need to be looking for solutions that will keep this from happening again. I think that we need to continue to promote the health benefits of dairy products and we need to stress the importance of how these products are produced naturally and responsibly.”

Melisa Konecky, daughter of Tom and Sharon Konecky, Jr,. from Beauty View Farms, near Wahoo, Neb., was named runner-up for 2011.
