New Flooring in the Pavilion
We are finally going to tackle covering the pavilion floor! This wonderful covered space that serves you at every feast and festival, for performing arts, graduations, and more, needs something better than stained and uncleanable concrete. We have contracted with Beaudry and Sons in High Springs to lay down a beautiful epoxy (triple) coating that is cleanable, durable and will give the pavilion a polished look.
Finish the Temple Veranda
The temple veranda is a key part of our gorgeous temple, made by the hands of many devotees here. The overhanging eaves create shade and a comfortable place to meet and greet devotees. But the veranda concrete was never totally finished, and it cannot hold onto paint. It looks a mess. So we are going to coat that with a product that will always look clean, last for generations, and do justice to our temple.
Pave & Fix the Temple Roads
The limerock roads, while maintaining the rural feel of the temple property, require a lot of maintenance. The dust they throw off is problematic for the devotees living along the road, for the cows in the fields near the roads, and for everyone’s cars. The road going back around to the kitchen is well used and needs a lot of maintenance. It floods after every rain and deteriorates as it lies on a downslope from the temple. We would like to fix that this year, add asphalt around the back and shape the area to accommodate rainfall.
