  1. Hi, Jaime

    The CEO of Hershey will not be speaking at the Dairy Summit. . A representative of Hershey will speak at the summit, but the name has not been released yet. It is not, however, the CEO who will in attendance. Could you please make that correction? I received a call from Hershey regarding this incorrect reference. I think it got incorrectly changed in the press release at some point.

    Thanks.
