Cory-Rawson entry wins "people's choice award"

Cory-Rawson High School won the "people's choice award" in this year's ODOT District 1 annual Paint the Plow contest, announced recently.

The C-R award was decided based on social media votes. Cory-Rawson collected 654 votes in the Facebook contest.

ODOT District 1 has held a Paint the Plow contest annually since 2014. It allows high schools and vocational schools within the district’s eight-county region to paint an ODOT snowplow blade with a message of school spirit, Ohio pride, patriotism or safety.

This year, 23 groups across the district’s eight counties painted plows – a record number of participants for the program. The plows will be displayed in various community events throughout the district, when possible.

County garage employees chose their favorite entry from their respective counties to go forward to the final round of judging for the overall ODOT choice award, as voted by all employees at the district’s roadeo event last week.
