Pages also participate in various ceremonial tasks, such as presenting flags before floor sessions. Along with her assigned duties, she also continued her regular schoolwork and attended page school to learn about state government.
Holly enjoys playing varsity volleyball and basketball. She is the 14-year-old-daughter of Gary Nelson and Heidi Sue Coldsnow of Elk, Washington.
