WMCT Radio salutes Scott Plyer, our Citizen of the Week. Working with young people has obviously been Scott's calling. He sums up his work in something he learned while teaching school in Watauga County...young people don't care what you know, until they know that you care. He says that caring about young people is what he's all about. Scott became a full time associate Pastor at First Christian Church in June of this year and is working with a ministry geared toward 20 somethings. And he continues his work as freshman football coach at Johnson County High School and is the voice on the public address system during home Basketball games. He and his wife Donda came to Johnson County 10 years ago. They have 2 children. A daughter Matney who graduated from JCHS this past Saturday and a son Nate who will be a freshman this fall. It's evident that the young people that Scott works with in the church as well as in athletic programs appreciate his efforts and give their best for him. Thank You Scott Plyer, our WMCT Citizen of the Week. Keep up the good work for our young people.
