Girl Scouts of Wisconsin Southeasts Camp Alice Chester (CAC) on picturesque Booth Lake first opened its doors in 1924 after a successful fundraising effort led by Alice Chester; the first president of the Milwaukee Girl Scouts. Thousands have walked its well-worn trails; cooked over campfires; and slept in the tents and cabins. Swimming and boating activities have consistently been a major appeal for campers. The historic European-style lodge has provided a gathering place for community meals; folk dancing; dramatics; arts and crafts; and ceremonies through the decades. CAC is a unique setting where skills and confidence are strengthened and lasting friendships are formed. Since the fall of 1980; CAC has also been known as Alice Chester Center (ACC). The name change brought expanded year-round; staff-led opportunities for Girl Scouts and others to utilize it during the fall; winter; and spring seasons. Today; the accredited property encompasses 333 acres and features frontage on two lakes.

Great Overview and insight into the acting technique of Michael ChekhovBy Juniper1989I am reading a lot of different books on Michael Chekhov at the moment and I find this book to make accessible some of the more esoteric ideas in Chekhovs work. Great book.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy MSExcellent!9 of 10 people found the following review helpful. An interpretaton of ChekhovBy EnriqueLenard states from the very beginning that the book is an attempt to show the way he understood the Chekhovs technique. This possibility remains open to anyone that approaches Chekhov. By assuming that Lenard has unlocked and illuminated the technique - as some reviewer stated - is to assume that the technique is occult and obscure and we need some guidance. The guidance in itself is already expressed in Chekhovs own work: "To the Actor" and anyone that works consciously on this book may realize that Lenards work is unnecessary. Not because is redundant but because it is almost entirely a new technique.Chekhov practiced Eurythmy for 30 years and was influenced by the work of R. Steiner -The founder of Anthroposophical Society. This influence; which is of an esoteric level; meaning that his spiritual path was related to this group; is clearly expressed in his work (Life body - Atmosphere and so on). Lenard overlooked this aspect and by doing so he failed to grasp Chekhovs technique as a whole. He interpreted it;and only partially; and the outcome of that interpretation is this book.I would recommend two works by Rudolf Steiner; "Speech and Drama" and "Eurythmy"; as strong complements to Chekhovs texts.If not as his foundation.Best;Enrique
