From 1999 through 2002, Scott was Co-Organizer and Co-Director of Athens-to-Atlanta, after volunteering for the event since 1991.  In 2002, Scott acted as Transition Director in the creation of a new Nonprofit Corporation, the Georgia International Road Skating Association Inc (GIRSA.org) - a new parent organization for Athens-to-Atlanta and for fostering inline road skating events and competitions.
