Due to circumstances beyond our control, the recent change of ownership of the MeetUp organization has revised the regulations of use for the site to MONITIZE all events to cover operational costs and pay ORGANIZERS for creating any event. They are also blocking access to information acquired on the site until we agree to begin chargig for events and collection of DUES for members.
We started this program back in 2008 as an adjunct to Sierra Adventures Outfitters store in Lodi. We started with 32 active paddlers who wanted to explore the local delta waterways, lakes and rivers, ocean waterways in this state.
The Lodi Paddle Club has now grown to over 1500 members and to this date has remained FREE to all who wanted to participate. We only ask for monitary contributions to cover parking and launch fees which would normally incur for any paddling event. We do not collect DUES, SIGN-UP FEES, or any other monitary contributions.
Jim Schneider is Owner and CEO of Lodi Paddlesports Center and has funded this site for the last eight years out of pocket for the good of the LPC.
We will hold this meeting at the Lodi Paddlesports Center at 847 N Cluff Ave Suite A6 (Formerly Headwaters Kayak) to discuss options and organization of continuing some kind of community awareness program for the enjoyment of our passion to paddling our boats and creating a more robust club attendance in the near future.
Emails will go out to all recorded MEMBERS by Friday 4-26-24 notifying all of the changes.
