Thu, 12 Jan 2012 13:01:42 CST
The reigning Miss America, Teresa Scanlan, is from Nebraska and she has promoted family farmers and their ability to feed the world as her platform over the last year. As she ends her time as Miss America Saturday night, Oklahoma hopes that another agricultural advocate, Davernport, Oklahoma's Betty Thompson, will have a chance to take her platform on a national tour the next twelve months. Thompson, as Miss Oklahoma, has promoted the dairy industry and the concept that "milk does a body good." She was Miss OSU before becoming Miss Oklahoma- and she grew up on a small dairy farm just outside of town.
Back to the reigning Miss America- below is a video that summarizes her message over this past year as she salutes farmers and ranchers.
