The September issue of Scout Life is packed with high-speed thrills, mountain adventures, survival skills and creative ways to make your next outing even better. Here’s what’s waiting inside for readers:

They’ll meet a four-time world champ: Antron Brown went from racing Pinewood Derby cars to becoming a four-time NHRA Top Fuel champion. He shares how science, engineering, teamwork and lessons from Scouting helped fuel his racing career.

They’ll learn how to conquer a mountain: Venturing Crew 1548 has climbed some serious peaks, including Mount Rainier, Gannett Peak and Borah Peak. Follow their tips on training, planning, technical skills, choosing a route and knowing when it’s time to turn back.

They’ll put their Scout skills to the test: In “Scout-Style Survival in Forgotten Island,” readers will see how skills from merit badges like Climbing, First Aid, Lifesaving and Music help characters in a new movie survive a magical island filled with mythical creatures.

They’ll discover creative ways to raise money: From selling honey made by their own beehives to selling snacks at football games, collecting donated clothing and hosting a barbecue, Scouts are finding fun ways to fund their next big adventure.

They’ll be ready for anything: The Scouting Around section shows Scouts how to build an emergency kit.

That barely scratches the surface. Readers will also discover what happened during a special service tradition on Mackinac Island, learn to make a clothespin lamp, and enjoy comics, jokes and all the other favorites that make every issue of Scout Life so much fun.
