New Year’s Day was a fun-filled day for the members of Shree Swaminarayan Temple New Jersey. The temple held its annual New Year’s shibir on January 1st, 2010. Disciples gathered in Swamibapa Hall and played games including Amazing Race (a clue-by-clue scavenger hunt that led to important people, places, and things in the temple), Balloon Stomp, Three-legged Race, Find It, Suicide Run, Human Wheelbarrow Race, Leap Frog Race, Kabadi, and more. After the games, falaful prasad was served to all. The day was a great way to kick off the new year and new decade.
