Man, 69, Accused of Sexually Assaulting a 14-Year-Old at Minnesota Nudist Club

Authorities in Minnesota have arrested a Wisconsin man accused of sexually assaulting a teenage girl in July at a decades-old, family friendly nudist club.

The victim, 14, was visiting the Oakwood Club in Stacy, Minn., with her grandparents at the time of the alleged assault, according to the Star Tribune.

Steven H. Wicklund, 69, who lives in Pepin, Wisconsin, was allegedly alone with the girl when the assault occurred. Police claim he was a "family friend"

Last week, Wicklund learned he would face third-degree criminal sexual conduct charges. He was issued a summons to appear in court on Jan. 12.

The Messenger was unable to reach Wicklund for comment, and it was unclear if he had an attorney who could address the allegations.

Founded 81 years ago, the Oakwood Club considers itself Minnesota's oldest club for non-sexual, clothing-optional activities.

The Oakwood Club promotes itself as family friendly with members of all ages.

The teen's mother called police after finding texts from Wicklund on her daughter's phone. In at least one of the texts, Wicklund requests nude images of the underage girl and her friends.

The teen allegedly told to her mother that Wicklund had groped her naked body and digitally penetrated her, according to the Star Tribune.

She said Wicklund told her "it was fine and normal" that they were sexually touching each other, the paper reported.

Police said the girl told Wicklund to stop the assault, but he didn't.

Police reviewed the girl's phone and messages from Wicklund, which they confirm were sexual in nature and included requests for nude photos of her.
