I would like to announce that Morrow County Oregon Dairy Princess Ambassador, Isabel will be in the Irrigon Watermelon Festival’s Parade and will also be at the Watermelon Festival. Princess Isabel will have some cute cow swag to handout and will be making her way around the festivities during the day. This is a great opportunity for any future princess wannabes to learn about the Oregon Dairy Princess Ambassador Program and all they do for the communities.

Welcome Princess Isabel 🥰🥰 we are so excited to have you join us this year.
