Letchworth State Park is a state park located near SUNY Geneseo in Livingston County. It is a pretty sizable park, about 17 miles long, with lots of different distinct locations within the park, so I thought it would be a cool place to try out the StoryMap application. I found some archival material in the school’s library, mostly looking at old journal articles and books published about the place. I had been to Letchworth a couple of times before doing this project, but I had not known much about the history of the place before I started looking at some of the archives. For instance, I did not know the Seneca Native American tribe had such an important presence in the park, and I did not know that the Genesee Valley Canal once crossed through the park. I think going forward there would be a lot of cool things to look at for Letchworth regarding the Native American history, especially because the Native Americans were so connected to nature, it might make for some interesting writing on the subject. The StoryMap application took me a little while to figure out, especially regarding some little details about the appearance, but I can see how it would work really well in a project like this. In my story map that is attached, I did not really have a clear narrative or theme within it, I more used it to see how it could work with the archival materials, but I think that once I get used to this application and create a more clear narrative arc within it, it could make for a really cool project.
