Following her graduation, she taught PE at Farrer Junior High School for two years. She also taught tap dancing lessons on and off throughout her life. Belle enjoyed outdoor recreation as well, and spent her college summer vacations working at V.T. Park in the Grand Canyon. With her friends, Angeline Warnick and Virginia Isabelle, she hiked from the north to the south rim of the Grand Canyon in 24 hours, on a whim. Two months later she hiked to the top of Mount Timpanogos. In 1963, she was chosen as the Outstanding Recreation Leader of the State of Colorado. Her final decades were spent in faithful attendance at various BYU sporting events.Aside from her role as beloved matriarch, Belle held many leadership positions. At BYU, she served as secretary of the junior class and in the following year assumed the duties of Student Body President from January through June of 1935. Belle valued her responsibilities in stake and ward Relief Society and Young Women presidencies as well.
An avid reader, Belle enjoyed membership in a variety of book clubs, including Provo's Literary League, of which she was a member for 22 years. She loved to give book reviews. A few days before her death, she spoke in Relief Society about some of her favorite literary works and offered her home as site for a new book club.
