7 Albany County Snowplows now have new names!
Not that long ago, Albany County asked the public to submit names for some of their snowplows and we now know those winning names!
The County announced the winners on Monday after receiving 280 submissions for their "Name A Snowplow" contest. They were able to narrow the field down to 15 finalists with 7 of those finalists being chosen as "winners".
These names will be added to the snowplow and the winners will be joining 2 of the newly named snowplows for this years St. Patrick's Day parade!
