BONNAROO

IB says: Large-scale sporting, musical, cultural, or religious festival as temporary sites and their associated costs and benefits

Case Study of ONE festival in a rural location, its site factors and geographic impacts.

 

 

Your assignment:

  • Using the link below create a Case Study using Microsoft Sway that answers (creatively and interestingly) the following:
    • What is Bonnaroo (5 points)?
    • What are the geographic site factors of Manchester , TN that make it a suitable site for this event? What are some geographic site factors that make it unsuitable?  Please don't Google here -- instead look at the maps below and come up with something insightful.  Remember, you all took Human Geo so this shouldn't be a mystery!
      • in case you forgot...you should consider both of these while creating your response!
        • SITE = physical character of a place (ex. climate, vegetation,  topography, ect)
        • SITUATION = location of a place in relation to another 
      • 25 pts 
    • What are the benefits of holding this event to the surrounding area?
      • 20 pts 
    • What are the costs of holding this event (remember, costs are not just monetary)?
      • 20 pts 
    • What are the environmental impacts of Bonnaroo/what?
      • 10 pts 
    • After examining all parts of the festival, on the balance, is Bonnaroo good?  Explain your answer.
      • 10 pts  
  •  Before you start randomly start typing your responses in a Sway please take some detailed notes in your notebook with the title RURAL FESTIVAL; BONNAROO .  I know this can be a bit annoying but remember, you have to know this stuff for the IB exam.  

 

**Below are some articles that I found for this activity. THIS IS NOT THE BE ALL/END ALL OF INFO!  In order to do this correctly further research needs to be conducted.
