Lisa Lax Moldaschel, 1984

Parents: Albert & Dorothy Lax, Sleepy Eye
Currently: Sleepy Eye MN
Lisa not only served Brown County as Dairy Princess in 1984, but also the Region as Regional Dairy Princess. She also had the enjoyable experience of having her likeness carved into a 90 pound block of butter! Her favorite memories from her reign include: the Minnesota State Fair, posing in the butter cooler to have her likeness carved in butter made by AMPI of New Ulm. “It was fun to see the people on the outside of the glass cooler; their looks and expressions, especially the kids!” Currently Lisa lives in Sleepy Eye with her husband Ron and their 2 children Jae and Holly. She works at NAPA Auto and Truck Parts as a counter salesperson. To current princesses Lisa says, “Always be yourself. No one can do it better than you. Always appreciate your dairy farm background. It’s a great character builder that will take you through life!” Lisa makes sure to look for “Real” Dairy products at the grocery store, “I teach my daughter that real dairy is always better than the “fakes.”” An interesting story that Lisa shares: “There was so many parades! I especially remember with fondness the red convertible that my dad bought solely to take me in to the parades, needless to say he was proud! And there was the Heritagefest Parade that year in New Ulm, where a young man in the crowd threw a water balloon at me, and as it passed by I reached out and caught it. I threw it back at him, definitely catching him off guard!” Lesson learned: Never mess with dairy farmer’s daughters!
