Discovery Girl FAQs

Frequently asked questions on becoming a Discovery Girl
What is a Discovery Girl?
We consider all of our readers “Discovery Girls” — girls who are curious, strong, and enthusiastic about becoming the very best they can be. In each issue of Discovery Girls, we also feature 12 “Discovery Girls” we’ve chosen to represent their state in the magazine. Every other month, we visit a different state for a two-day photo shoot, during which our 12 Discovery Girls from that state help us put together the issue.
How do I become a Discovery Girl for my state?
If you are between the ages of 8 and 12 and we are visiting your state, fill out the online questionnaire. Follow the instructions for submitting it through our website, and make sure you hit “send” before the deadline for your state. Then, wait patiently. If you are chosen, you will receive an e-mail to let you know. After we’ve contacted all of our Discovery Girls for your state, we’ll post a notice on the Next Stop page. Good luck!
When are you coming to my state?
To find out which states we’ll be visiting in the next few months, check out the Next Stop page.
You've already been to my state. Will you ever come back?
We do revisit states, so don't give up hope. However, if we've been to your state within the last year, it's not likely we'll return for another year at least.
Will I hear from DG if I don't get chosen?
Unfortunately we are not able to contact all the girls who are not chosen, but we do post a notice on the Next Stop page when all the girls from a state have been notified.
