Let Boys' Life Be Your Program Helper
Boys' Life magazine helps make your Scouting program and your Scouts excel. Research shows that boys who subscribe to the magazine advance further, spend more time outdoors, and stay in Scouting longer than those who don't.
Below are articles and features scheduled for publication in the March and April 1999 issues of Boys' Life that can help youth members with advancement.
Abbreviations are "ACH" for achievement, "ELECT" for elective, and "MB" for merit badge. Titles in COLOR indicate special program features.
