I've noticed that for the past years the Muslim population of South Jersey has arranged to hold Eid Namaaz at the Woodbine. My thoughts are - I think we can do MUCH BETTER! We deserve much better; such a special occassion should occur in a nicer venue, not at some place that's advertised on South Jersey's radio stations for having the best late night parties with dollar drinks and what not. I don't think that such a place is very appropriate to book for a religious holiday. I couldn't stand how poorly organized it was - there wasn't enough space to walk or to find a spot to pray; and there were piles of shoes near where the women were praying - how disgracefully disappointing !!

I think we can do a better job of organizing a better arrangment at a better location and venue - i.e. a hall at a Hilton, Marriott, etc. Please offer any advice you may all have and maybe, Inshallah we can accomplish something for next Eid.
