“It is amazing how hard it is to get whipped cream out of your hair,” said Dawson County Tax Commissioner Nicole Stewart. Stewart, whose office was recently awarded Best Activity for last April’s Relay for Life event, took part in the pie-in-the-face contest involving several local elected officials. Hours after getting pied herself, Stewart said it took three hair washings to remove the dairy product completely. “We should’ve used non-dairy,” she said. She laughed and admitted it was well worth it. The award was given on Sept. 15 along with a gold team award for the group who reached that status by raising over $5,000 of support for Relay for Life.
