Hindu temple celebrating completion

  • tags: no_tag

    • Crowds of up to 1,500 are expected each day of the three-day festival at the Minnesota Hindu Temple, which serves as a cultural and spiritual hub for about 30,000 Hindus in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota and the southern part of Manitoba.
    • After years of dealing with everything from an attack by vandals to construction dust fouling up his computer, temple manager Narender Venkata is going to concentrate on enjoying himself this weekend.
    • Finishing touches.
    • "This is for everyone, not just Hindus," Venkata said.
