Troop 34 was chartered in October 1993 when a group of older scouts split off from a Frazier Park troop to develop a program focused on high adventure activities.

Troop 34 began meeting at Thompson Junior High School. Later, they moved to Actis Junior High School, and they were meeting at Reagan Elementary School before merging with Troop 484 in March, 2000.

The first Charter Representative for Troop 34 was Rick Smith. He also served as Troop Committee Chairman (1992-93), and Scoutmaster (1993-94).
