Audience

The audiences I want to reach are locals in Louisville.  People who care about what is going on in the city.  This could potentially include newspapers and news broadcasts in Louisville.  The background of my audience is very broad.  My audience includes all races, genders, and ages.  Basically anyone interested in bettering their own community.  An unknown audience could be people from other cities who want to make a difference in their communities as well.  The Louisville audience is mostly active.  That is why I think they would be interested in what is going on in Cherokee park, the biggest and most visited park in Louisville.  Active people are going to be the ones mostly interested in what I am saying and researching.  They are the ones who have probably been to the park at one point or know of the different places I mention in the park.  My audience most likely knows about Cherokee park in general.  I do not think many of them know that a structure that has been there for around 40 years is in danger of being destroyed.  I think that if more people knew about this problem than more people would be willing to help to save it.  I don’t necessarily know my audience.  They are going to be strangers but at the same time neighbors.  Louisville is big but still tied together in one way or another.  This may not be a major issue to people but I do feel like it will strike a chord with some locals. My audience is going to want facts.  What is the issue at hand and how can it be helped and resolved.  The response I would want is for people to get involved.  I want people to tell others what is going on and see if they can help.  The best way to appeal to my audience is to speak to them as a friend.  Give them the necessary facts but be kind in my writing.  I don’t want to pressure anyone I just want them to be aware of what’s happening in the community.
