Welcome to the Sashti Walk 2024 organized by the Concord Shiva Murugan Temple.
Skanda Sashti is an important festival for the Hindus as it is dedicated to Lord Muruga.
Lord Murugan is known for eliminating demons named Soorapadman and his brothers Tarakasura and Simhamukha on Sashti Tithi of Shukla Paksha. Devotees observe fasting for six days during Sashti.
The Concord Shiva Murugan Temple is organizing a walk to the temple to celebrate Sashti. This is a shorter 7 miles walk route starting from Heather Farms Park, Walnut Creek, CA.
Registration is required to participate in the temple walk scheduled on November 9, 2024.
The Temple Walk Organizing team will find a way to accommodate anyone serious about walking to the Temple. Please register only if you are sure about walking. This will allow the organizers to plan better.
If your plans have changed and you need to cancel, we encourage you to do so. This will allow someone else on the waitlist to take advantage of the open spot instead.
Organizing an event like this requires a lot of volunteers from the community. Consider signing up for various volunteer activities.
