ITD invites students to help name snowplows
Published at | Updated at
IDAHO FALLS — The Idaho Transportation Department is once again asking students to put their creativity to work by naming the state’s snowplows.
ITD’s second annual “Name a Snowplow” contest is open through the end of October and invites classrooms in grades 6–12 to submit clever names while learning about winter driving safety.
“Our snowplow drivers are thrilled to see students getting involved in this fun, educational opportunity that also highlights the importance of winter driving safety,” said ITD Director Scott Stokes.
Two plows in each of ITD’s six regions will receive student-chosen names, selected by ITD employees. The winning names will be displayed directly on the snowplows, and each winning classroom will get a special visit from their plow and its driver for a winter safety presentation.
Teachers can submit entries or get more information by emailing itdcommunication@itd.idaho.gov. The deadline for submissions is Oct. 31.
