New Year Games 7 The Sri Lankan New Year arrived on Friday the April 14th. 4000 miles away in New Jersey USA, many Sri Lankans did not fail to observe the cherished 9 traditions and to introduce them to the Sri Lankan American youth. The two long standing New Jersey Avurudu Charithra Uthsavas, those organized by History Timeline 10 the New Jersey Buddhist Vihara and by the Samadhi Buddhist Foundation, Carrom 13 were once again held this year and were very well attended.
