Program Options

Whether participating individually or within a troop, Frontier Girls offers options to suit a variety of needs. Age levels range from preschool through adult, and the program is designed specifically for multiple ages to work together.

Join a Troop

Joining a troop is the most popular way to participate in Frontier Girls. Troops give girls the opportunity to earn badges, participate in activities and service projects, develop leadership skills, and learn alongside other girls in their community.

Girls from preschool through high school may participate in the same troop. This makes Frontier Girls especially well suited to families with girls of different ages and allows older girls to take on leadership roles, teach skills, and mentor younger members.

Frontier Girls troops are independently organized and operated. While troops use the same Frontier Girls curriculum and program structure, each troop determines how it operates. Meeting schedules, troop size, dues, activities, service projects, fundraising, age levels served, and other details may vary from troop to troop.

Curiosity Untamed LLC provides the Frontier Girls curriculum, badges, awards, program standards, and resources, but does not own, operate, supervise, or staff local troops. Because each troop operates independently, Curiosity Untamed LLC cannot guarantee placement in a troop or require a troop to accept new members.

Families interested in joining a troop should contact the troop directly to learn about availability, meeting times, costs, activities, and any additional rules or requirements established by that troop.

Be a Pioneer

The Pioneer option is designed for girls who do not have a Frontier Girls troop nearby or who simply prefer to participate individually. Pioneers follow the same Frontier Girls badge and award curriculum as girls participating in troops, but complete the program with their families rather than through a local troop.

A parent or other responsible adult guides the girl through the program, helps determine appropriate activities, and verifies completion of badge and award requirements. Instead of wearing a troop number on her uniform, Pioneers wear the number 100 to designate them as individual members.

Pioneer families may also join the Frontier Girls Facebook Forum to connect with others, ask questions, and share ideas.

Are you a Patriot?

The Frontier Girls Patriot Program recognizes girls and families with a connection to military service and the sacrifices military families make. Girls with a parent or sibling, including a stepparent or stepsibling, serving in the military may wear the service flag pin and a special red, white, and blue ribbon down the center of their level tab.

Frontier Girls leaders and volunteers with a spouse, parent, child, or grandchild serving in the military may also wear the service flag pin. Girls and adults with immediate family members who are veterans may wear the veteran flag pin on their uniform.

Because military families often move from one location to another, participating consistently in a local troop may be difficult. Girls from military families who participate individually may wear the Patriot number 911 instead of the Pioneer number 100, making it easier to find and connect with other military families. Patriot families may use the Frontier Girls Facebook Forum to connect with other Patriot families, including those who may live nearby.

Patriots are also welcome to join a local Frontier Girls troop when one is available. A Patriot who joins a local troop wears her local troop numerals along with the Patriot ribbon and pin as part of her regular Frontier Girls uniform.

Quest Clubs

Quest Clubs offers a flexible alternative for families and groups that want to use the same extensive badge curriculum as Frontier Girls without the structure and traditions of the Frontier Girls program.

Quest Clubs may be all boys, all girls, or co-ed. Each club chooses its own name, traditions, uniform, rules, and structure, allowing families and groups to create a club that suits their own needs and beliefs. There is no required promise or creed, and uniforms are optional. Vests are available in a variety of colors for clubs that choose to create their own uniform.

Some Frontier Girls troops partner with a Quest Club so boys and girls can participate in activities together while still using the program that works best for each of them.

For families looking for a co-ed program, a less structured option, or the freedom to create their own club traditions, Quest Clubs may be a better fit than Frontier Girls.

Frontier Girls Family Memberships also include access to Quest Clubs for the family.
