Instead, subject to members' votes at a meeting in Dunedin on Sunday, it will concentrate on reminding voters of what he said were the Dunedin city and Otago regional councils' refusal to listen to the public over the stadium.
The meeting should mark the start of the next phase of the organisation's campaign, following the end of courtroom battles and the beginning of construction of the Forsyth Barr Stadium.
Mr Witherow said he expected the issues the organisation would campaign on would be wider than just the stadium.
The meeting was notified in an email to the organisation's about 1500 members.
It follows an annual meeting in August, when former president Bev Butler stood down, and Mr Witherow took over, calling for a change of direction.
The organisation was unsuccessful in two court hearings this year, and was left with $9740 court costs, another issue it will have to consider at the meeting.
In the email, Mr Witherow said the group's committee recommended Stop the Stadium remain, but with a new mission statement and possibly a change of name reflecting "the reality of what we now need to do".
The options were to wind up, or "refuse to be put out of action by this legal intimidation".
"The Stop the Stadium committee, having considered the options carefully, is strongly of the view that quitting now would be a dereliction of our duty as citizens.
"For the future good of our city, we must rid ourselves of these puppets," he said, referring to councillors.
"If they, or any substantial proportion of them, survive the next elections, this city will be bankrupt."
Mr Witherow said he would release the motions he planned to put forward today, following a meeting yesterday.
He wanted the organisation to change its aims to limiting the "ongoing damage" he said the construction of the stadium was causing the city, especially to its finances.
The organisation would also promote democratic governance for Dunedin, and campaign on issues like parking, the Dunedin Town Hall redevelopment, and the closure of John Wilson Ocean Dr.
But it was "completely" not his intention to run candidates.
"We have never intended to run candidates.
"What we will very obviously be doing is keeping in the public mind the way they have been rorted over the stadium."
He said it would not be a negative campaign, as it would be for good governance, and while it would be against waste of ratepayers' money, it would be for more clever ways of using that money.
