planning is successful and to understand the reason and impact on the community these events
can do. (3) Bullet points of key notes to charts of impact scale help the reader, (4) probably event
planners, really visualize the points necessary when planning a large scale event. (5) This is
similar in that it is important to know the impact a festival has on the community and how it affects
those in attendance. (6) The workbook is 248 pages long which could also be a (7) weakness
since it would be hard to read the whole workbook just for the research paper.

ideas of the planning process. (4) The audience, most likely college students and event planners,
are able to really comprehend the definition of a music festival in more detail (5) which will help
me really understand the concept of reasoning in my planning (6) The amount of detail in charts
and visual imagery really help in making this journal unique and easier to read. (7) The weakness
would also be that half the journal has an ad for this app.

the scale of my event and how to handle it based on that scale. (6) This workbook is 249 pages
long and has a number of different sections that can appeal in my senior project (7) but the
workbook is full of different aspects that are similar to my topic but do not really give me advice
on how to go through with the topic.

excitement, socializing, and thrills of festivals in modern day society. (6) The several amounts of
references and citations really are good enough to (7) cover the fact that some of the language is
hard to read.

and long with fill in guidelines, (7) but also has a weakness in that it does not specifically pertain
to music festivals but any large scale event in general.
