Official publication of the Boy Scouts of America Earns Four
Distinguished Achievement Awards

IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Association of Educational
Publishers (AEP) recently recognized Boys' Life magazine, the official
publication of the Boy Scouts of America, for its educational
excellence by awarding it four Distinguished Achievement Awards. Along
with the most highly coveted Periodical of the Year award for Grades 6
through 8, the AEP honored Boys' Life for achievements in the design
category for illustration and article, and in the editorial category
for fiction.

The Association of Educational Publishers (AEP) is the national, non-
profit organization for educational publishers that supports the
growth of supplemental educational publishing in media. The AEP
announced its award winners June 12, during the Annual Awards Banquet
& Gala at the Renaissance Hotel in Washington, D.C. Celebrating its
40th anniversary this year, the Distinguished Achievement Awards
identify the best educational materials-such as books, periodicals,
educational toys, and software-within subject and education level
categories. The awards are evaluated ontraits such as efficacy,
usability and overall educational value and are judged by a pool of
editors, educators, and writing, publishing and design experts.

"Producing a publication that will inform, inspire and excite
America's youth has been our top priority since the magazine's
inception," said J. Warren Young, publisher of Boys' Life. "Receiving
four of the most esteemed awards among youth publishers is a testament
to that vision. We are very excited to have earned such honors and
look forward to continuing our efforts to foster the education,
leadership skills and character development of today's youth."

Created in 1911, Boys' Life is a monthly magazine that reaches an
audience of 1.1 million subscribers, 50,000 of which are not Boy
Scouts. Including pass-along readership, about 7.4 million people view
each issue. While fulfilling the vision of the Boy Scouts of America,
Boys' Life aims to promote reading and serve the active lifestyle of
its unique and dynamic audience, the majority of which are boys ages 6
to 11.
