President George W. Bush to Headline International Dairy Show

(Washington, D.C. - May 20, 2010) The International Dairy Foods
Association today announced that George W. Bush, the 43rd president of
the United States, will lead off the International Dairy Show on
September 13, 2010 in Dallas, Texas. 

"President Bush served during eight of the most consequential years in
American history," said IDFA President and CEO Connie Tipton. "We are
excited that he has accepted our invitation to share his insights on
public service, the nature of leadership and the challenges facing our
nation."

President Bush will sit down with Tipton for an hour-long conversation at
10:00 a.m. on Monday, September 13th. The talk will include a question
and answer session.  President Bush is credited with making many
significant decisions that will shape the nation's course and world
affairs for decades to come.

"President Bush's leadership after the terrorist attacks of September 11,
2001 was an inspiration to millions of Americans," said Tipton. "Working
with leaders in Congress and the private sector, President Bush raised
standards and accountability in public education, added a prescription
drug benefit to Medicare that helped more than 40 million beneficiaries,
launched historic efforts to fight HIV/AIDS and malaria in Africa, and
strengthened America's relationships with strategically important nations
including India, China and Japan."

The International Dairy Show, presented by the International Dairy Foods
Association, will feature the newest innovations in technology,
packaging, ingredients and services for the dairy foods industry.
Educational sessions will offer solutions that span the entire
manufacturing process, and attendees will have the opportunity to visit
exhibits displaying everything dairy companies need to run more
efficiently, create new products and improve profitability.
