REQUIREMENTS TO JOIN THE LODI MOTORCYCLE CLUB AND BE IN GOOD STANDING:
Meetings are held every Monday at 7:00 PM at the Lodi Cycle Bowl clubhouse. Persons interested should come to a meeting and ask for an application. Two members will need to co-sign for you. You then go through 8 "readings" where you attend 8 meetings and we see if we're comfortable with you and you with us. We're also looking to see if you're a potential member that will be doing his share of club work. Membership requires at least 120 hours per year of volunteer time and we would want to see you doing at least a "pro rata" amount of time during your readings. Thus, if you show up every Monday for 8 weeks for your readings we'd want to see at least 20 hours of club work during that time. Track watering, flagging or other race work, facility maintenance and repair- there are lots of club duties that count as hours. At the 8th reading we'll vote on your membership and if you pass, then you are a probationary member with all rights and privileges except we'll do one final vote at your one-year mark. Dues are $75.00 per year, payable when we vote you in at your 8th reading. In addition to Club hours and dues, to stay in good standing you will also need to attend at least 1 meeting per month.
Benefits: If in good standing you get a club gate key and can come to the Club any time you want. You can ride on non-race days during the daytime (it costs a bunch to run the lights so we only do that for races) from 10 a.m. on and you can also bring along 2 guests to ride. If your hours are up to date you get two race entries (except any money-paying races) at 1/2 price, if you have "double hours" (240 hours per year) you get free races. The discount race entries apply to you and any direct family members (self, wife, kids, grand kids). The best part of membership is helping keep one of the few and oldest flat track race venues in the country open and going strong.
