The [[Old Baldy Council]] (#043) was founded in 1917 as the Pomona Council. It changed its name in 1921 to Old Baldy. The Old Baldy name is from Mount San Antonio, often called "Old Baldy" or "Mount Baldy", the highest peak in the San Gabriel Mountains. | |||
On May 1, 2006, Old Baldy Council was dissolved, with the chartered organizations and units reassigned into two neighboring councils. The Sunset District (in Los Angeles County) joined with the [[San Gabriel Valley Council]] and the Golden Eagle and Trails End Districts (in San Bernardino County) merged with the [[California Inland Empire Council]]. | |||
