Lodi Lake and the surrounding parks and nature center are a huge part of what's special about this town. We should preserve it at all costs.

The Lodi Lake nature area is an oasis in a sea of identical houses and cookie-cutter strip malls. It brings joy and wonder to all who enter.

community relationships, opportunity for family to enjoy outdoor recreation and arts/cultural programs, safe activities for young people.

Parks are for everyone to use and have outdoor space when they need it! Parks are community spaces that need to be cared for and protected!

Our family appreciates the local resources and activities available in Lodi because it creates connection to Lodi and community within.

Youth sports mainly. A place for families. Unfortunately it also means lack of bathroom in parks and the presence of homeless people.

safe, active community where my kids can play and grow. They provide the essential spaces that make Lodi a great place to raise my children

My family relies on local parks to stay active, connect with other members of the community, and learn about other cultures.
