Ravan Dahan

Happy Navratri! Besides 9 forms of NavaDurga, we celebrate the different facets of goddess. 3 days of Ma Lakshmi, 3 days of Ma Saraswati and 3 days of Ma Parvati.

When : Sunday Oct 10th please follow the guidelines. Considering the weather, we will try to light up Ravana as early as possible. Hence we request punctuality.

Families of Raam Parivar are expected to be in the parking lot with raincoats or please hold an umbrella over our little celebrities! These little tots are the best part of Ravan Dahan, but it is highly imperative that all parents understand that you have to adhere to some rules in order for this to be a successful and disciplined community event. We will move the event quick to make sure that the drizzle does not impend our festivities.
