ITD Launching Its Third Annual 'Name a Snowplow Contest'
Idaho students can submit names for a snowplow, and winning classrooms will get a driver visit and winter safety presentation.
- On Thursday, the Idaho Transportation Department launched its third annual 'Name a Snowplow' contest, inviting students in grades 6-12 statewide to submit entries through October 31.
- Laila Kral, Chief Deputy of ITD, noted the contest helps students 'connect with' snowplow work while learning winter driving safety during critical years for future drivers.
- Educators teaching grades 6-12 and homeschool families can submit entries online; names must be appropriate and 15 characters or fewer, with winning classrooms receiving a snowplow visit and safety presentation.
- Department employees will vote on submissions in November, with winning names for two snowplows in each of the six ITD regions announced by year's end.
- Since expanding eligibility to grades 6-12 last year, ITD has received creative winning entries including 'CtrlSaltDelete' and 'Blizzard Basher,' demonstrating student engagement with the annual initiative.
