1994 Brown County Dairy Princess Shannon Zeig.
Shannon enjoyed working with youth at area dairy cattle shows. Here she is pictured with Julia Fischer (Dairy Princess in 2002 & 2003).
Parents: Mike & Rosie Zeig, Sleepy Eye
Currently: San Jose, CA
In addition to serving as a Brown County Dairy Princess, Shannon was also a Region 9 Attendant. Shannon thoroughly enjoyed county fair/showing season, therefore she says, “Giving out ribbons and trophies at the County Fair Youth Cattle Shows would be my favorite princess activity.” Shannon is married to Tim Ryan, and they are expecting their first child in August 2010. She lives in San Jose, CA and is working for eBay as a Senior Marketing Manager. To current princess, Shannon tells, “You represent an industry of hard-working, good people. Be worthy of that. Have fun while being kind, supportive and humble.” When asked about how Shannon promotes the dairy industry still today, she shares, “My friends and co-workers have gotten used to me ordering milk when we go out to lunch. I don’t order iced tea or soda (pop ) …just milk!” Shannon also shares an interesting story from the past: “During our Region 9 Dairy Princess Coronation, there was a tornado warning and all the princesses as well as the crowd were “herded” into a hallway for a half hour, where we sang “99 Bottles of Milk on the Wall”!”
