The NBC10 Mornings Team offers their own ice plow names after DelDOT once again asks kids to name a snow plow ahead of winter. Bill Henley suggests Scoop Dogg!
As winter approaches, the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) needs help naming some of its snow plows.
They're giving Delaware students in Kindergarten through 5th grade the chance to enter their fourth annual "Name That Plow Contest."
Last year, DelDOT said there were over 200 entries, and the winning names were Ice Ice Bladey, Melton John, and Blades of Flurries.
This year one winner from each county will be selected, and a snowplow will visit their school, according to DelDOT.
