Scotty McCreery is taking the Plunge. The Standing in for the annual Polar Plunge event that sees people across the country diving into freezing cold waters in the winter months, SONC is adapting to the COVID-19 pandemic by inviting participants to take the plunge individually in a pool, ice bath or some other social-distancing-friendly way. The goal is to help raise money for Special Olympics North Carolina, which provides sports training to children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Scotty has started his own page to raise donations, with a goal of $10,000. “I’m happy to Plunge in Place this year and show my support of the nearly 40,000 athletes who train and compete as part of Special Olympics North Carolina. They inspire me, the Five More Minutes singer says.
