Evergreen Mill Elementary School Wins 2022 “Paint the Plow” Contest

Leesburg, VA (November 1, 2022) – Students from Evergreen Mill Elementary School created the winning entry in the Town of Leesburg’s 2022 “Paint the Plow” contest.

Two Leesburg schools participated in the public art project, sponsored by the Leesburg Commission on Public Art (COPA) and the Friends of Leesburg Public Arts (FOLPA). The 2022 theme was “Weather”. The two entries were:

• Super Snowman, by Evergreen Mill Elementary School
• Snow Day, by Catoctin Elementary School

The painted snow plow blades were featured in the Kiwanis Halloween Parade on Monday, October 31. The winner was selected by the members of the public using an online survey.

Both snow plows will be seen during the Town’s upcoming Christmas and Holiday parade in December. They will also be visible while plowing Town streets during snow events.
