Trip to Conewango Valley Country Club
Over this past weekend, I took a trip to the Conewango Valley Country Club. It is a private club with a golf course, a pool, and the main building which contains a bar and dining services. Originally when assigned this writing assignment, I had no clue where I was going to go. It just so happened that I had a job interview there this past weekend. I got the job, and this iswhere I plan on working this summer. The staff is nice and I am looking forward to working here.
As soon as you arrive at the club, there is a beautiful scenic view with a bridge across a pond. There are several paths leading to multiple outdoor seating arrangements all picture worthy. If you continue up the driveway to the main building, you’ll pass a decent sized pool for any member who wishes to use it. Around the pool is an area to relax with tables for eating, and lounge chairs for lounging.
Upon entering the main building, you would find multiple dining tables in an elegant center room as you walk in. Continuing your journey in the building, you’d find another room with a pretty neat fireplace giving the room a comforting vibe with couches and other comfortable seating around it. It is a relaxing area where I can imagine receives lots of company due its warm hearth and seating arrangements. There is also a bar there if you’re trying to get wrecked or just want to drink casually.
Right behind the building and surrounding the club’s main areas, there is a 18 hole golf course. It is a well maintained course and I look forward to golfing there. One of the benefits of working there is you can golf there for free anytime off the clock. The timing of this project was perfect considering my interview was the same weekend. It is a great place and I’m glad I’ll get to work there, and that I got to write about it.

I enjoyed reading your blog. Surprisingly i have never been to the country club. it sounds like a really nice place to be a member of. It also seems to have a lot of perks as an employee,including being able to golf there! You explained thoroughly and i think you did a really good job!

Jared, great post about the country club. I have never been there but based on the way you use imagery to describe the place, I have a good idea of what it looks like. I think you did a great job explaining the place and all the benefits of employment there. I love how you used the scenery literary device to completely develop the beautiful views of the country club. I think you could have touched up on the nature of the place but other than that everything looks great. By describing the layout and interior of the place, you give readers a glance of the place as if they are there themselves. Also, by using words such as elegant, you add to the effect of scenery which is seen as a higher end place. Specifically designed for the higher society class of people. I think you could have given more literary elements like describing the history behind the club or why it is so popular today. With what you said about the literary element you used, I think you did a great job, described it super thoroughly and gave us great insight about the experience of your trip. Great post and thanks for sharing you experience!
P.S Our prom is supposed to be there now I have insight on what it looks like, thanks!!
