The Last Frontier Council of the Boy Scouts of America have committed themselves to developing troops in all five of the Authority's family developments.

Troops meet weekly.
As a new program beginning in late 2000, the Last Frontier Council of the Boy Scouts of America have committed themselves to developing the Venturing Program in all five of the Authority's family developments. Venturing is based on a unique and dynamic relationship between youth, adult leaders, and organizations in their communities. Local community organizations establish a Venturing crew by matching their staff and program resources to the interests of young people in the community. The result is a program of exciting and meaningful activities that help youth pursue their interests, to grow, to develop leadership skills, and to become good citizens. The Redlands Council of Girl Scouts have committed themselves to developing troops in all five of the Authority's family developments.
