MassDOT has announced the winners of the 2024 “Name A Snowplow” contest.
The contest received entries from public school classrooms located all across the Bay State to name the 12 MassDOT snowplows that will be in service during this 2024/2025 winter season.
According to MassDOT, the purpose of the contest is to celebrate the snow and ice season and to help recognize the hard work and dedication shown by public works employees and contractors during the winter season.
“Maintaining safe and clear roads across Massachusetts during winter is no easy task. We appreciate how educators are engaging their students in this fun competition that honors this vital public service,” said Transportation Secretary and CEO Monica Tibbits-Nutt. “Congratulations to the winning classrooms, and we look forward to seeing your snowplows out in the field.”
Each winning classroom received a $100 gift card for school supplies.
“This contest is a great way for schools across the state to connect with the crews who work tirelessly to keep our roads clear each winter,” said Highway Administrator Jonathan Gulliver. “Thank you to everyone who took part in this contest, and congratulations to our winners.”
