BOISE, Idaho — The Idaho Transportation Department is inviting students to participate in the 2nd annual "Name a Snowplow" contest.

The program invites Idaho students to submit creative names for ITD snowplows while learning about winter driving safety.

Beginning Wednesday, Oct. 1, 6th-12th-grade classrooms across Idaho can work with their teachers to submit name ideas. Entries will be accepted throughout October, and the winning names will be announced by the end of the year.

“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 Scott Stokes, Director of ITD.

Two snowplows in each of ITD’s six regions will receive student-chosen names through voting by ITD employees.
