We are brainstorming to establish a temple within our community center. Temples, located at many street corners of Nepal remain center piece of our heritage and culture. So we ask all of you to lend suggestions finding a unique name for this historical temple??

“Progress is achieved by active involvement of our members in the community center”. Thanks for your active participation. Recently, many people have approached us about starting a temple within the center. Although religious, we feel Hindu temples, gods and goddesses are strong part of Nepali culture and heritage. If agreeable, we could designate an area circled in the red on the map (currently children’s pool) for future site of temple. Many have proposed an open setting with Shiva Lingum in middle of the pool with fountain. What does everyone think? Can we even pay someone in triad to build a basic shiva lingum?? Please look at the google image of basic shiva lingum for your opinions.

With everyone in mourning from one of the worst disaster in history of Nepal, we do have some good news to share with our community. Demolition and back-fill has finally begun. After many hrs of negotiation, contractor has finally started demolition last week. Weather pending, work should be wrapped up by end of coming week. This will wrap up Phase 1 of our project, congratulations everyone.

We have a permit from City of High Point for demolition of the pool. However, due to inclement weather in this part of Carolina and issues with contractor, work progression has been slow. We will continue to push our work forward and we will get it done soon.
