For 26 years, Barnett has been a Boy Scout leader for a unique troop of boys with mental and physical disabilities, the only troop like it in the state. Barnett holds weekly meetings for 27 boys, teaching them typical scouting skills like knot tying, building campfires, and how to properly fold an American flag—making adjustments as necessary for each scout’s limitations. He also takes them on outings and camping trips—giving the boys confidence, a sense of belonging, and the opportunity to experience things they might not otherwise enjoy.
