The Foundation was created to provide leadership and generate revenue to repay the City of Lodi the purchase price, plus raise monies for all the capital improvements. Lodi Unified School District Board of Education sold the ten -acre site to the City for $475,000, with a guarantee from the Foundation for repayment. The debt was repaid in full in December, 1984 through private donations and many public fund raisers. The completion of this debt is only one of many efforts of the community support to build Hutchins Street Square. The City is a full partner to the proje, with their commitment to provide maintenance and operation of the Square from the general fund budget. The individual contributions for capital improvement and the facilities are gifts to the City of Lodi. -1- OLD LODI UNION HIGH SCHOOL SITE FOUNDATION, Dennis G.

Licensed by the state as a social day care for a maximum of 30 clients, the facility is housed in the south end of the Senior Complex at Hutchins Street Square. The facility was built to suit to the day care and Senior Commission's specifications and is connected to the City's Senior Information Center for supplemental services and support. The contract for use of space is $1.00 per year, and is received each Spring from the Hospital Administration at a caregiver and client dinner. A 12 member joint committee with representatives from the Old Lodi Union High School Site Foundation Board and Lodi Memorial Hospital Board meet quarterly to oversee the operations of the programs. The program is operated by licensed staff through Lodi Memorial Hospital, supplemented daily with vo:t'nteers. Any and all profits generated by the program are to benefit the continued development of Hutchins Street Square. To date, the first three years have not generated a profit and Lodi Memorial Hospital has absorbed these operating expenses. -34- ADULT DAY CARE ADVISORY COMMITTEE John Barkley Jerry Hugo Dennis Bennett Charlene Lange Bruce Burlington Sheri Mallory Jack Carter Joan Nakashima Delores Dickey Richard Sanford Ted Holmstrom Terri Whitmire ADULT DAY SERVICES STATISTICS 1992 65 Clients registered at Adult Day Services 37 Clients using the Day Care weekly 6 Full Day (M -F) clients 4 Full Day (M,W,F) clients 27 Half Day (2-3 days week) clients 15 Registered clients using the Day Care 1-6 days month 5 Half Day clients attending the Day Care 2 days week paid by Linkages and M.S.S.P (Department of Aging) 5 Half Day clients attending 1-3 days a week from board and care homes (one located in Stockton) Clients from: Galt, Lockeford, Clements, Herald, Stockton, French Camp and Lodi Caregivers Support group meeting third Monday each month (10-12 attending) Volunteers gave 1,949.5 hours in 1992 to the Day Care Value of $10,722.00 in salary.(Based en $5.50 per hr) Client charges for using Day Care $20.00 Full Day $14.00 Half Day -36- 100 80 60 40 20 0 ADULT DAY CARE HUTCHINS STREET SQUARE Jun Jul Aug VOLUNTEER HOURS Sep 1990 Oct Nov Dec I. ts- M 1 25C 200 150 100 50 0 ADULT DAY CARE HUTCHINS STREET SQUARE Jan Feb Mar Aper May Jun 91 ut Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 1111 VOLUNTEER HOURS 250 200 150 100 50 0 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov1992 ADULT DAY CARE HUTCHINS STREET SQUARE all VOLUNTEER HOURS 160 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 Jun ADULT DAY CARE HUTCHINS STREET SQUARE Jul Aug Sep 1990 Oct TOTAL CLIENT VISITS Nov Dec 250 200 150-• 100 -• 50 -• 0 ADULT DAY CARE HUTCHINS STREET SQUARE Jcm Feb Mar Apr May Jun1991 Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec TOTAL CLIENT VISITS 300 250 200 150 100 50 ADULT DAY CARE HUTCHINS STREET SQUARE 0 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun 1992l Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec I TOTAL CLIENT VISITS Lodi City News 1992 Day Care Seniors Lunch In The Sun! The clients at the Adult Day Services Center at Hutchins Street Square a •e fortunate to have a 6,000 square foot patio adjacent to their facility for . their use. According to director Terri Whitmire, her clients "simply love the chance to be outside during the day enjoying the sunshine or taking a walk on their own." The patio was built with monies from the Community Development Block Grant funds and a contribution from the family of Harold and Emma Schroeder. The patio, which cost in excess of S65,000, was completed last October. It features raised planter beds for the seniors to enjoy and putter with gardening. Plenty of vegetables have already been harvested — the se- niors are experts in growing parsley and fresh chard and have enjoyed it during their lunch meals. Senior volunteer Marc Gabrys has been instru- mental in donating his expertise in gardening and puts in the sweat labor to make sure the gardens are in tip-top shape. The Lodi Garden Club, -under the direction of President Luella Severson, have planted the largest bed with roses and continue to be involved with their upkeep and care. The Old Lodi Union High School Site Foundation has recently purchased patio furniture and umbrellas for the seniors to use during their activities as part of the daily curriculum. The Adult Day Services Center is operated under the auspices of Lodi Memorial Hospital and is offered as a non-profit service for the seniors and their families of the greater Lodi arca. Daily fees, including meals- are 520.00. For more information or a chance to view the program for one of your loved ones, please contact the Square at 369.4443. Clients of the Senior Day Care facilities spend much of their time outdoors at Hutchins Street Square making good use of the patio. Gardening, walk- ing or just soaking up the sunshine are all added values for seniors who at- tend the day care facility. `Sharing the Caring' week Adult day care centers offer many services By Scott Crow • News -Sentinel staff writer Local centers are doing their part to help celebrate National Adult Day Care week, Sept. 21-26. The Adult Day Services Center and Health,For All are joining other facilitis throughout the na- tion in recognizing the importance of elderly day care programs during "Sharing the Caring" week. Both Lodi centers provide a place for older adults who require some supervision of daily activities. The Day Services. Center is for more active adults, while Health For All focuses on elderly citizens who need more nursing attention. "We're fortunate to have two lev- els of service in Lodi," said Terry Whitmire, manager of the Day Ser- vices Center. Whitmire observed that having the two centers in town allows family members and care- givers more alternatives. If an elderly adult only needs medical monitoring, Health For All provides . an option to a convales- cent center, program director Sara Nation noted. "We hope to keep people from having to go to a skilled nursing fa- cility," Nation said. "We're just an- other step in another direction." Located at Hutchins Street Square, Adult Day Services has 'a regular schedule for adults. The center opens at 8 a.m., with visitors beginning the day with introduc- tions. Whitmire said other features in- clude a discussion of current world events, lunch, snacks, exercises and group projects. The center also has regular events, including special visitors, "Our main purpose is to keep people ac- tive, alert and socially active as we can'.. . They have a lot of . fun. They're here just ' to keep themselves active." --Terry Whitmire Day Services Center like a guitarist every Wednesday.' All in all, the center plans a full day, Whitmire observed. "Our main purpose is to keep people active, alert and socially ac- tive as we can," she said. The social component is impor- tant, Whitmire said. Group activi- ties are a focus, with the seniors looking forward to the companion- ship. "They have a lot of fun," she not- ed. 'They're here just to keep them- selves active." The group and individual activi- ties at the center emphasize hand - eye coordination and mental stiriu- talion, Whitmire added. At Health For All, visitors .also look forward to a full agenda. Everything from picnics to walks to bingo is on tap at the Washington Street facility. Nation said volunteers oftenvisit the con - ter, to pro.ide special programs on subject's' like music or arts and crafts. The medical aspects of the cen- ter include occupational and physi- cal therapy and staff includes a nurse and social worker. "We provide full therapeutic ser- vices as well as medical monitor- ing," Nation said. Tho center does not offer round- the-clock medical help, instead pro- viding monitoring by the aurae. Nation said Health For All must receive a physician's referral for each new visitor to the center. After the center has the referral, Health For All asscsscs the person's situa- tion to see what type of services aro needed. While the two Lodi centers pro- vide a place for elderly residents, they also help . the caregiver, Whitmire said. She noted how some caregivers need a brief respite during the week, perhaps to run errands. The Adult Day Care Center provides a place for caregivers' patients to • 6 — Lodi Ne -Sentinel — Friday, September 18, 1 n 992' SCOTT' CLOW, Editor • Lodi Adult Day Services visitors (stay, •whether'it's only once a.week .. or daily. Nation said that Health For All' visitors also can stay as often as they wish, even staying for half the day if the caregiver wants. Residents from throughout the area are welcome at both centers. Whitmire noted that visitors come from as far away as French Camp and Herald. According to Na - enjoy their morning walk. 'tion,Health For. All also sees peo- ple from various cities. "Wo pay for transportation, like Dial -A -Ride or County Arca Tran- sit," Nation said. The Adult. Day Services Center is a not-for-profit department of Lodi Memorial Hospital and serves dependent adults -18 years and old- er. Health For All is a for-profit or- ganization associated with the Loel Foundation. -45- 1 eny Ede • Both •.centerspre.,state-1}censd• and ' emphasize safe: •..an: erivt- • ronments.

The Arts Commission is now on solid footing with space available to administer those programs and generate fees directly into the operation of Hutchins Street Square. Within our current budget, we have many ideas to generate revenue and the local talent to make it happen, including music lessons, developing a cultural nightclub, art camp and expanded dance programs. To accomplish this goal, we would need a full-time staff position shifted or transferred from the Recreation Department to the Arts Commission, under the direction of the community center. Cuts 1. Reduce Budget, Operations and Grants poportionate to overall level of cuts needed throughout the City affecting all levels of service in the current Arts Commission budget: Save $5,000. 2. Beyond a 1O% cut, anything additional cripples the concept and integrity of the Arts Commission and virtually strangles all current and future civic development of the arts. -52- Revenue Enhancements: Revenue Estimate 1.

JJJ ••a• ••• 4,0 • LODI SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA & CHORUS idNik Lodi Symphony Orchestra Association P.O. Box 2716, Lodi, CA 95241 Hutchins Street Square Auditorium There is a move in city hall to completely close down Hutchins Street Square and to bulldoze the auditorium to the ground in order to balance the city budget. The City Council has announced a public hearing on Hutchins Street Square for Tuesday evening, 26 January, at 7:30 pm in Carnegie Forum. The Lod! Symphony Association plans to present the following state- ment at that meeting: "Lodi has a symphony; Sacramento doesn't. But Lodi just barely has a symphony because it does not have an adequate place to perform. It costs about $3,000 to pay the symphony musicians every time they play, so five rehearsals and one concert cost about $18,000. We now struggle to get along in a 300 -seat local church. If we sell every seat the most we can hope to make is $3,000 which will not cover the production costs of renting the church and promoting the sale of tickets, let alone paying salaries; a second performance would only increase our costs. However, Hutchins Street Square Auditorium will provide 900 seats for which we can hope to sell up to $9,000 worth of tickets for each performance. A second performance here can be expected to make up to $6,000 to help pay for rehearsal and production costs. Thus the auditorium will make possible a reduction in necessary fundraising efforts eacn season by however many tickets we can sell above the current 300 -seat limitation. Also, Hutchins Street Square Auditorium will provide greatly improved acoustics, seating arrangements, and visual surroundings than we can hope to get in a building not designed for the performing arts. These are the reasons why Hutchins Street Square Auditorium is absolutely essential to the future of symphony in Lodi and, indeed, for all of the performing arts." The impact on the City Council Thalthis statement will have depends on the number of concerned citizens who turn out to support it. Its effectiveness will be multiplied by each person who shows up at Carnegie Forum. If enough people show up, we will ask for a show of hands to drive the message home. Make a point of being there!
