Girl Scouts help boost new venture started by N.C.-grown `Survivor'

Now this was more like the tribal council Jeff Varner was looking for.
Varner is the Greensboro native who lasted until about halfway through the recent CBS series "Survivor: The Australian Outback." He met a dozen of his biggest fans Friday when he visited Charlotte to publicize a charity program he has started.
The fans, eight members of Girl Scout Troop 152 in Charlotte and four adult leaders, met with Varner when he visited WNKS-FM (95.1) to appear on the morning "Ace and T.J." show.
"He was our favorite, all the way," said Sandy Williams, the troop leader.

The Crayon Alliance stems from Varner's decision to take a box of crayons and coloring b°P°a
