New: Scouting Publications

Scout Life

Scout Life magazine is an official monthly publication of the Boy Scouts of America. This magazine is designed to engage young Scouts ages 6-18. Scout Life is published in two demographic editions. Both editions often have the same cover but are tuned to the target audience through the inclusion of 16–20 pages of unique content per edition. They feature unusual Scout BSA trips that average Scouts don't usually take. The magazine also contains physical fitness tips and healthy eating and lifestyle, comics, and all things Scouting.

The first edition is suitable for the youngest members of Scouting, the 6-to-10-year-old Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, and Webelos Scouts. The second edition is appropriate for 11-to-18-year-old Scouts, including Arrow of Light through 18-year-old Scouts BSA and Venturers. If the subscription is obtained through registration in the Boy Scouts of America program, the publisher will select the appropriate edition based on the Scout's age.
