Keeping Busy Waiting for Baby Daniel
Immediately after
returning from Haiti, Scott was very busy for Super Bowl week - starting with his
plans for the game,
GQ's pre-game party, and then
fundraisers for Rock N Soul and
Saturday Night Spectacular.
That didn't stop him from talking to
Ultimate Guitar or
Spokane's Rock 94.5 about how his life has changed, or from
enjoying the Harlem Globetrotters with his family! A family that's soon to include
a little boy, to be
named Daniel, after Jaclyn's brother.

A Heart and a Plane for Haiti
Many of us, including the members of Creed, have been moved by the crisis in Haiti and contributed to the cause. Scott has taken it a step further, traveling with his brother- and sister-in-law to Haiti to personally assist the people in recovering from the devastating earthquake. If you
follow Scott on Twitter, you've seen his updates about their efforts. They're working with
Plane to Haiti, which shipped in 10,000 pounds of supplies, and interfacing with several other missions and organizations while on the ground. The
official press release talks about the Plane to Haiti mission, and you can see Scott's
photos and a
video about the work being accomplished.
We're very proud of the work Scott is doing, and are working on a way that we at PBF can contribute to the relief efforts as well! We will update with information as soon as plans are finalized - or, go to
planetohaiti.org and donate there!
