Blog #4
In life there are certain things you can always count on as being true like in the end everyone has to die, no matter what if you skip school your going to get into trouble and, although we work hard to change this, there’s always going to be problems in your community. In order to handle these issues in life there are certain people, often elected by you and me, to stand on a board and solve them. After reading through as many Internet sources as I could keep track of I managed to stumble upon the fallowing five names, Stev Stegner, Susan Young, Bo Bogotty, Jackie McNamara, and Jim DuFour, according to http://www.ci.forest-lake.mn.us. These five officials were the top members on my committi board and the key leaders in my community. In order to get a feel for what concerns arise in the minds of the people I decided to hit the top. Stev Stegner is the mayor on our community and is the person I wanted to speak to. After a long, in-depth questioning session I descovered that there were only two topics widly inhabited in minds of the people in our community. One of these topics was traffic control. In our town between two certain hours, lots of traffic tends to build up over five or six trouble spots. Apparently the town council is trying to succeed in making these trouble spots go away. Another widly taversed subject is new building projects which Mr. Stegner says gets brought up a lot. Out of all the issues that could possibly plauge our town, these two issues seemed to be the most brought up.

Don't be afraid to title your blogs it adds to the content. Good post thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSarah, Good post, but it suffers from a kind of top-heaviness; too much of this short text is taken up detailing the process by which you came to write about Stegner, too little devoted to what he said. You also desperately need to open up the look of your blogs by using short paragraphs rather than one long block of copy. Please also begin to include links to other web pages offering supplmental or background information related to what you are blogging about.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the creative build-up, yet agree that in this case, shorter would be "punchier." Enjoyed your post, thank you.
ReplyDeleteGood information
