She served as the Women's Golf Executive Board president in 1971, handbook editor in '91 and '92, and was the 18-hole chair in '84. She organized the Sr. Par 3 Program, the Indian Tree Bowling League and the Tuesday Bridge Club. She was a docent at the Arvada Center, and a room in the senior center is named for her. She was also very active in the Arvada Historical Society, after having taught physical education in DPS Elementary schools for 42 years.
