SUMMARY:Let’s Build a Life Sized “Rube Goldberg” FULL
DESCRIPTION:Let’s Build a Life Sized “Rube Goldberg”  FULL\nProgram Leaders: Bill Ballou and Susan Schwartz\n Build a life-size Rube Goldberg style machine using everyday objects and chain reactions. \nThe famous cartoons by Rube Goldberg depicted machines doing simple things in unnecessarily convoluted ways\, something like the board game “Mousetrap.” We will\, as a group\, construct a life-size “Rube Goldberg machine” using available materials and a lot of imagination (as well as principles of physics)\, to create amazing chain reactions with everyday objects. As a bonus\, Susan will also teach mahjong some afternoons! \nBill has a background in film\, TV and live theater construction\, rigging and problem solving starting in the early 1970’s.  He has been a construction coordinator on many feature films\, a technical director at REDCAT in Los Angeles and other theaters\, and taught Technical Direction at California Institute of the Arts School of Theater. Susan is a career prosecutor who holds a degree in art business and has been making art of various kinds for years. Bill and Susan have collaborated on many art projects.

SUMMARY:Into the Woods: Exploring Henry David Thoreau  Cabins FULL\, Tenting Available
DESCRIPTION:Into the Woods: Exploring Henry David Thoreau         Cabins FULL\, Tenting Available\nProgram Leader: Bruce Johnson\n Explore the life\, writings\, and ideas of Henry David Thoreau\, including Walden\, while delving into his connections with Transcendentalist thinkers and reflecting on the art of living deliberately. \nReflecting on his two-year experiment in “simple living” at Walden Pond\, Thoreau wrote\, “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately\, to front only the essential facts of life\, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach\, and not\, when I came to die\, discover that I had not lived.” In this program\, we’ll delve into Thoreau’s life\, his connections with Transcendentalist thinkers like Ralph Waldo Emerson and Margaret Fuller\, and explore a selection of his writings\, including his masterpiece\, Walden. No prior study of Thoreau is required—just curiosity and a love of ideas. \nBruce Johnson is a Unitarian Universalist minister with more than forty years of experience serving congregations in New England and the Midwest. Officially retired from full-time ministry in 2023\, he currently serves as a quarter-time consulting minister for the Keweenaw Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Houghton\, MI. He has been drawn to Thoreau since first encountering his work as a teenager.
