City of Jackson snow plow. Photo courtesy City of Jackson. (January 15, 2022 11:15 AM) They go by names like “475” and “474” right now, but some of Jackson’s snow plows are about to be bestowed with more interesting names from the community. The City of Jackson is now taking submissions on what to name five plow and salt trucks operated by the Department of Public Works. Residents with name suggestions may submit them through the City website, cityofjackson.org. The deadline to submit names is Friday, Jan. 21 at 5:00 p.m. Following the deadline, City staff will review the names, pick their top 10 favorites, and then have the community vote on social media. The top five names will be assigned to five rigs who have the important jobs of clearing City streets during winter weather events. Local and state governments have held similar plow naming efforts in recent years. Public Information Officer Aaron Dimick looks at this as a fun challenge for the community. “We’re hoping to find some amusing name suggestions that reference the community, and are excited for what people in Jackson can come up with,” Dimick said. “Our plow trucks do a lot of important work…

Jackson United hockey player Kully Miotke (19) drives toward the goal against Brett Terry during a game at the Optimist Ice Arena on Friday night. By Jeff Steers JTV Sports (January 15, 2022 8:23 AM) If the Lumen Christi/Jackson United hockey game on Friday was an Olympic boxing event, the Titans would have won by a split decision. Lumen Christi dominated the first period, Jackson came back to win the second period, and the Titans finished off the game in the third period with a big goal by Kavin Kennedy. Kennedy scored three minutes into the third period giving LCCHS a 3-2 win over Jackson United in front of a large crowd at Optimist Ice Arena. The Titans improved to 9-3 on the season while JU is now 6-7. Kennedy said he saw an opening and took it. “All I remember is I was open in the slot and saw and opening … and it happened,” Kennedy said.

The goal gave Jackson a boost of energy for the second and third periods. “We took it…
