Take it to the Park-An Arts & Activity Program at Hutchins Street Square

You hold in your hands a gateway to a world of life-enriching activities, from sports to music

to classes that will engage you or your child. This could be a stepping stone to a new career or

hobby, an opportunity to make new friends or simply acquire a skill that makes your life more

fulfilling.

Whatever it is, whatever your age, we’re hoping you give the Activity Guide a close look. Our

department works hard to assemble programs to meet the community’s interests, and we’re

fortunate we’re able to introduce you to so many high-quality instructors.

In addition, the guide has a calendar of events and schedules of City activities available to

anyone without having to register.

So grab a seat and take a moment to look through these pages. Perhaps you’ll find a class that

will make you a better job candidate, make you feel more energized, or a sport that you or your

child can share for years to come. Invest in yourself!

It’s exciting to be part of a department with a long history of offering a wide variety of activities

and program to the community. We’re certain you’ll find something that will excite you as well!

Sincerely,

Jeff HoodJeff Hood

Lodi Promenaderssquare dancing and round dancingSquare dancing is four couples forming a square and dancing as a group. It is a physical activity, good for the mind, body and soul. It is smoke and alcohol free for a healthy environment. The calls coordinate the body and brain—physical fitness burns calories—slows and helps prevent loss of bone mass—and the social aspects of interacting in a square encourages many friendships.Joe Vallery has over 40 year experience directing dance patterns for square dancing. He also has the experience for cueing round dancing, which is a ballroom type dance as everyone dances the same steps to the cues given to the rhythm of the music.Recommended for ages 10 years and up.

WritiNG tO heaLTrauma is a certainty of life; healing isn’t. However, there are a number of ways a person suffering from pain or loss can regain control and develop a purposeful, passionate life again. There is a great deal of evidence that writing can hasten the healing process. This course offers guidance in implementing a writing program for the express purpose of rediscovering hope, health, and joy. Whether the loss is one of illness, divorce, death of a loved one, or another traumatic experience, the techniques taught here will help you to move beyond judgment, and learn to live fully each day. The class is open to caregivers as well as those suffering trauma. (note: the instructor, Linda Abbott Trapp, PhD, is a former Dean of the California School of Professional Psychology, and has had a counseling practice in several states and abroad.

piano With VictoriaMy non-traditional approach is especially appealing to people who relate to one or more of the following: • I have just a little or no piano experience. • I struggled previously with traditional lessons. • I want to play just for myself or at casual parties, sing-alongs, church. • I quit lessons because it was too hard/frustrating/couldn’t play hands together/wasn’t allowed to play music of my own choosing… • I read music well, but I can’t play a note without a written page in front of me • I want to play with and without sheet music, and/or “lead sheets”.

Play first – read notes a little later, after you are able to get around on the keys, playing music that sounds good. You’ll discover what makes music “tick” by experiencing it. It’s not mysterious! You will be guided through a wonderful musical journey where your hands will play your heart through Pop, Blues, Gospel, Classical, Accompaniments, Composition and Improvisation your first semester.

Foundation material kits including CD and DVD are $55 once per semester. Accessory kits, less than the Foundation kits, vary in price and are usually not introduced in the first semester. Payment for the kits are directly to the instructor. You will be contacted by me as soon as you are enrolled. A 10% discount is offered if making a full payment for the entire semester. Otherwise, class may be paid in monthly installments.

Theatre ArtsIMPROV COMEDYFun, inspiring, freeing and hilarious; if these words sound interesting, then this workshop is for YOU! Improv Comedy, made famous from “Whose Line Is It Anyway…”, is one of the fastest growing skills to have in the entertainment business. Not to be confused with Stand-up comedy, Improv is where you make everything up as you go. The skills from this workshop help you think on your feet and adapt to any change in a situation. And it’s not only for actors, but also for anyone who is interested in becoming more outgoing, more comfortable in social situations or getting more self-esteem. Anybody can do this! Brent Tubbs, who performs with such groups as ComedySportz, The Second City L.A., and The Reduced Shakespeare Company, has worked and performed with some of the best improvisers in Los Angeles and is thrilled to bring this art form to Lodi. Through this workshop, you will learn the basics of improv and learn what it takes to perform in an improv show. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry (from laughing) and you will have the time of your life. COME JOIN THE FUN!

Lisa Foster will discuss the voice-over business as a whole, the numerous opportunities, the incredible income potential, and will discuss the all important “demo” and how to have it produced. You’ll step up to the mic and do some practice recording, and best of all, you’ll hear the results!

Parks andRecreationNature Programs iN our CommuNityLodi Lake Nature Area Docents- Volunteering at its Best!If you love nature and children, and can walk a mile or two without problems, then consider joining the Lodi Lake Nature Area Docents, a group of volunteer naturalists.This volunteer group has been serving Lodi since 1986. You don’t need to know much about science, just have some time to donate and a willingness to learn about the area.Our mission: To stimulate people of all ages to learn about and appreciate the 58-acre Lodi Lake Nature Area because of its unique riparian woodland ecosystem, which borders the Lower Mokelumne River at Lodi Lake Park.Our goal: Our goal is two-fold: •We strive to educate “young-at-heart docents” through monthly meetings that equip and stimulate volunteers to lead tours •Westrivetoreachourcommunity’sstudentsofallagesthroughnaturetoursoftheLodi Lake Nature Area.Through engaging interpretive techniques, docents encourage students “to see, to understand, to love and protect” our local “island of plant and animal diversity” found at Lodi Lake Nature Area, a remnant of the rapidly vanishing riparian forests of the San Joaquin Valley.What Does it Take? Please contact us for an interview if you are interested. Once you have been interviewed and accepted, you must pass a fingerprint and background check. A self-study natural history of the Mokelumne River and Lodi Lake binder prepares you with needed information. Pass a take-home test and you are ready! As a new docent, you will typically accompany some tours being led by more experienced docents till you are ready to lead your own. Qualified docents must then be willing to lead at least two tours monthly during the school year. Docent meetings occur on the second Thursday of every month and take place at the Lodi Police Department’s Community Room. Monthly programs focus on topics related to nature and the river area and help provide ongoing education. College students seeking community service may also be interested in applying.Contact: [email protected] for more information or call 209.327.2063

Depending on grade level and class interest, the room can be interpreted to suit teacher needs.

Watershed EdDocent presentation additionally can focus on appropriate watershed issues that relate to students’ responsibility at home/school where urban/rural stormwater runoff is discharged to the river, often negatively impacting the water quality and natural environs of the river area. “The river is everywhere!” This presentation may be suitable for MS4 Stormwater Discharge Permit requirements. Check with your school’s Stormwater Discharge Permit requirements.

Since 2003, the City of Lodi has hosted a California Coastal (Inland) Cleanup at Lodi Lake Park and on the Mokelumne River, within city boundaries. This annual park and river cleanup is an attempt to involve citizens in keeping their rivers and oceans free of inland trash.In Lodi, much of the rain that falls on or flows to streets is discharged to the Mokelumne River. On the work day, volunteers are divided into teams that then pick up trash at Lodi Lake Park and along the Mokelumne River. Trash is then sorted, counted, documented and the data is sent to the California Coastal Commission. Students needing community service hours are encouraged to attend. Certificates are given to all participants.Interested? For more details: (209) 327-2063.

Clean-A-ParkCommunity Service Groups! Opportunities abound for civic minded service groups, school groups, scouts and families to lend a hand and spend a day helping keep our Lodi Parks clean. Bags, borrowed gloves, tarps and grapplers provided.Interested? Call the Parks office for more information: (209) 333-6800, ext. 2454.

Clean-A-CurbProtect our local waterways! Did you know that school playground litter can end up in our waterways?Many of the City of Lodi’s parks also act as stormwater basins to hold street runoff before it is discharged into other waterways. This stormwater is not treated! Take action on your school’s campus by organizing a “Clean-A-Curb” for students to participate in after school.As a practical way for students to celebrate Earth Day, earn community service hours, or for environmental clubs or After-School Programs to host a school wide community service project, contact the Public Works Department to learn how environmental stewardship can be taught through action. Stormwater education programs are also available for school or club presentations.Interested? Call 327-2063 for more information. Gloves, bags, tarps, and grapplers are provided for borrowing.
