I am married to Rolf Holbach and have two sons and one stepdaughter. Between them we have five granddaughters. Plus, we have two huskies named Bailey and Petey. For anyone who knows us well, they know that the dogs are family.
I retired from working in the insurance industry for over 40 years underwriting commercial property insurance.
My first experience getting naked with others was in high school when a bunch of us went skinny-dipping in the HS pool one night. After that, until I met Rolf in 1995, I didn’t really think about nudism. One weekend he took me to Elysium, and I enjoyed it so much that we started visiting different clubs throughout California. We even took our honeymoon in the Caribbean, staying on the nude side of Grand Lido Braco. We also went to a few western TNS gatherings. Eventually we joined the region’s largest non-landed club, the Southern California Naturist Association (SCNA) in 2005. Rolf became a member of the SCNA board of directors in 2007, and I joined the board in 2013. In 2012, we became empty nesters, which required doing some remodeling to the upstairs rooms of our Frank Lloyd Wright, Jr. home. Soon after that, we decided to open a clothing-optional B&B, Arroyo Del Sol, as part of the Clothing Optional Home Network. We’ve had guests from all over the world and continue to meet many wonderful naturists through this experience.
I’ve served on two other boards, one for my children’s daycare where I oversaw recruiting new board members among other tasks. After that, I joined a work-related startup organization where I spent four years in charge of education. Since I have been on the SCNA board, I have evolved into the membership chair. Part of that is assuming the responsibility of being the SCNA certifying officer for our AANR and TNSF members and helping to recruit more.
Since retiring and becoming an empty nester, I am so glad I got more involved as it became very rewarding for me. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the people involved with The Naturist Society Foundation. From participating in the TNSF book club and Zoom meetings to the Gatherings, it’s like seeing family whenever and wherever we get together. I feel that getting involved is important to keeping naturism and TNSF alive and active, which is also very satisfying.
