Monroe County Plows

MARIETTA - Students in Monroe County have added their artistic touch to Ohio Department of Transportation snow plows, and now community members have a chance to pick their favorite.

The plows were recently painted by students at the following schools:

  • River Elementary
  • Beallsville High School
  • River High School
  • Powhatan Elementary
  • St. Sylvester Central Catholic School
  • Covenant Christian Academy
  • Monroe Central High School
  • Monroe County Board of Developmental Disabilities
  • Skyvue Elementary
  • Woodsfield Elementary 
  • Beallsville Elementary
  • Switzerland of Ohio - Swiss Options for Success

Photos of the plows are posted on the ODOT District 10 Facebook page. Followers are encouraged to vote by "liking" the photo of their favorite plow. Voting ends on Monday, November 27.

The plows will be featured in the Monroe County Area Chamber of Commerce Christmas Parade on Sunday, November 26 in Woodsfield. 

“Paint-the-Plow” is a community outreach program in which schools and youth organizations are invited to paint an ODOT snow plow with original artwork. In addition to being seen in full service during the winter months, the plows will be used at events within the communities represented to enhance public awareness, promote safety, and foster greater appreciation of ODOT and the youth of Ohio.
