The Idaho Transportation Department and Idaho Department of Education are working together to kick off the first ever annual ‘Name a Snowplow’ contest.
Starting October 1, eighth grade students across Idaho are invited to participate with their classrooms to submit a name.
Contest entries will be accepted through the month of October with winning names announced by 2025.
Two plows in each of six Idaho regions will be selected through voting by ITD employees.
Winning names will be displayed directly on ITD plows, with winners awarded a visit to their school by that plow and driver to talk about winter safety.
This contest is for eighth grade students, with the hope of sharing winter driving safety messages as this age group will soon be in driver’s education classes.
Contest rules can be found on the Idaho Transportation website.
