Four Corners residents are invited to unleash their inner genius this December! The New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT) is back with its Name a Snowplow contest, and they need your help to give our winter warriors names as unique and vibrant as our corner of the world.
Think you can come up with a name that captures the spirit of the Four Corners — with a snowy twist? Now’s your chance to blend your creativity with your regional pride!
Why This Contest Matters to the Four Corners
Winter in the Four Corners brings a special kind of magic, but it also brings snow and ice. Our snowplows are essential for keeping our roads safe and our communities connected throughout the season, ensuring everyone can enjoy the beauty of a Four Corners winter.
This contest is a fun way to show our appreciation for their hard work and add a touch of local flavor to our highways.
