Last Saturday we celebrated the last youth group for the year. The theme was “The colour saffron”
Everyone was to come wearing at least one item that was the colour saffron. This was to show our appreciation in a very, very small way to Srila Prabhupada, our dear spiritual masters and practically anyone who are our teachers.
We had our year-end ‘party’ out in beautiful Rose Park, starting of with 3 miniature kirtans then a sharing of each persons special moment with Srila Prabhupada or any spiritual master, which was very nice as we come to appreciate these wonderful people even more by hearing others appreciation for them!
We then played a game in which each team of pairs had to find 5 things in common with each other in 30 seconds…things got more difficult as we joined teams and swapped people around. Really funny as some of the things in common were 10 fingers and 10 toes!
We had prasadam which Sunaina coordinated and to which everyone contributed – thank u all!
And then we spent half an hour deciding whether to play touch rugby or volley ball ;o) and finally decided on volley ball.
Then it was time for desert – ice cream or more like milkshake cos it was left in the sun and then another 2 kirtans plus Nrsingadev pranams before a final game of rugby.
All in all a relaxed day of sharing, caring and just having fun! Thank you everyone for the past year ….Until the New Year you all!!
