Phil Pennino

If you enjoy wine tasting, our community boasts a number of wineries with tasting rooms. While enjoying a few of our premiere wines, why not take a tour or meet with our winemakers who could share their experience, local history, and maybe even a few trade secrets!

If it is recreation you seek, our community offers an abundance of adventures and activities including golf, fishing, swimming, boating and even skydiving. Enjoy Lodi’s own community lake, or venture out to discover almost 1,000 miles of Delta waterways.

If you are interested in experiencing arts and culture, you can catch a concert in the park or an exciting evening performance. The Hutchins Street Square Performing Arts and Conference Center is the cultural heart of the community and home to musical concerts and a variety of theatrical performances.

The Lodi area offers a variety of options for shopping, including our recently restored downtown district, which includes a brand new multiplex theater. Our community also boasts some of the finest dining establishments in the San Joaquin Valley.

Whatever you choose to do during your stay, I wish you a wonderful time and hope you will want to return again and again to experience the warmth and charm of Lodi.

Sincerely,
Phillip A. Pennino
Mayor, City of Lodi
