History
The land that is now Froid was homesteaded by James and Alice Baker, and who erected a building that housed a dry goods store, livery stable, and meat house. One family currently residing in Froid (the Johnsons) are descendants of this couple.
Froid was incorporated in 1910. The town made headlines in 2007, when Governor Brian Schweitzer gave the commencement address to the high school graduating class, which consisted entirely of one student, Roxie Britton. The act received considerable soft news coverage for this distinction.
