Dairy Royalty on parade

The 2015 Allamakee County Dairy Parade traversed the streets of Waukon Monday, June 1, with a number of area businesses, families and organizations providing entries to pay tribute to the dairy industry. Among those parade entries were two of "relatively royal" status, as cousins Katie Kerndt (in left photo), daughter of Brad and Mary Kerndt of rural Waukon who wears the crown of the 2015 Allamakee County Dairy Princess, and Leslie Sivesind (right photo), daughter of Dan and Jane Sivesind of rural Waukon who wears the crown of the 2015 Iowa Guernsey Princess, were both representing their industry. The princess pair are granddaughters of long-time dairy producers Frank and Carol Sivesind of rural Waukon. View and find out how purchase these photos and more in the Photo Gallery.
