Final Project – The Culture of Sewell Park: Where it’s Been and Where it’s Going
Jeremy and I will be exploring and documenting the culture of Sewell Park as well as it’s history and any plans Texas State has for its future.
We plan to look at the activities that go on at Sewell, including frisbee, laying out, floating the river, sand volleyball, The Outdoor Activity Center, and RiverFest which will take place on April 22, 2010.
We will include an interactive map of Sewell Park, pictures of the activities and video of RiverFest.
We will interview a member of SACA, an employee of the outdoor center and hopefully a band member performing at RiverFest.

Sounds like you have a lot of work cut out for you on this project. Some items we’ve discussed that you can continue to work out/ think about:
1. How much, if any, of the actual river do you want to cover? It could get tricky trying to cover the entire river in one page, as you could probably do an entire site on it.
2. There are several events other than Riverfest that involve the river. Just a couple off the top of my head are the River Clean Up which happens in Sewell as well, and the Island Party.
3. You probably want to focus much on the people at the river. You could do profiles of the different types of people you might run into: the sun bather, the athlete, the slack liner, the kayaker, the hipster/fixed-gear biker, the hippie…
There really are many different directions you could go with this. Try to narrow the topic a little. Great ideas!
