Our Troop FL0031, as an ambassador of American Heritage Girls National, is a faith-based leadership and character development program. We have been established since 2005 by the leadership of Susan Gattle.
Our Charter organization is Freedom Christian Center Church located in (Viera) Melbourne, Florida. This church provides us with facilities to meet and supports us in every way. We are thankful for their love and care.
Troop Meetings: Thursdays, September – May or special scheduled times
Troop Structure: During Troop meetings all girls meet together and/or in smaller units. Each level may be divided further into squads based on ages and number of girls. We maintain proper leader/girl ratios and two-deep coverage at all times.

Badges American Heritage Girls work on badges in six skill areas known as Frontiers throughout their time at a level. These Frontiers are: Heritage, Arts, Family Living, Outdoor Skills, Science and Technology, and Personal Well-Being.
Awards Our Troop holds award ceremonies and an annual awards ceremony in May where the girls receive the badges, service stars and level awards that they have earned.
Service AHG girls are encouraged to offer service to their community. They are eligible to earn service stars based on their hours of service. These hours can be accomplished with the Troop or individually. Our Troop offers at least 5 service opportunities during the year. All families are encouraged to help by volunteering on a troop team. Our volunteers are key to our success.
