IDAHO — Get ready to see newly named snowplows hitting Idaho’s icy roads.
Idaho Transportation Department announced the winners of its Name a Snowplow Contest where Idaho classrooms were invited to submit the names of plows.
In North Idaho, the two winners were “CtrlSaltDelete” from teacher Kristy Dykes and students in the Mullan School District and “SnowbiWanKenobi” from teacher Denae Glenn and students at Post Falls High School.
ITD will also take the plows to the selected schools for education visits.
“We’re proud of the creativity and community spirit shown by Idaho’s students and teachers in naming our snowplows,” said ITD Director Scott Stokes. “These names help connect people to the important work our crews do every winter. When you see a plow out on the road, please remember to give them space so they can keep our highways safe for everyone.”The other winners can be seen below: North-Central Idaho: Blizzard Basher, Genesee School District, teacher JR Morrow Frosty, Salmon River Jr.-Sr. High School, teacher Ms. Mayes Southwest Idaho:Austin Plowers, Idaho Virtual Academy, teacher Michelle Mattson Betty WhiteOut, Idaho Virtual Academy, teacher John Benson South-Central Idaho: Blizzard Wizard, Shoshone Schools, teacher Mark Sant Scoopy Doo, East Minico Middle School, teacher Mitchell Young Southeast Idaho:Sleetwoodmac, Franklin Middle School, teacher Josh Nielsen Snowzilla, Idaho Virtual Academy, teacher Becky Ipsen East Idaho:Fast&Flurryous, Idaho Virtual Academy, teacher Mr. Henderson Catch my drift, Farnsworth Middle School, teacher Laura Walker
