Scoutmaster and one of the Buyer’s Agent team members, Randall Barnett, leads troop 85, North Carolina’s only scout troop devoted to developmentally and physically challenged scouts. Each summer, Barnett brings Troop 85 to an accessible campsite to build fires, pitch a tent, and participate in outdoor activitie.
