Actually there are two programs this Dashain in Chicago. One is organized by erstwhile Chicagoland Nepali Pariwar in Radheshyam Temple as mentioned by "Americano". Another is organized by Chicagoland Nepali Friendship Society (CNFS). The details for that are as follows. Luckily the two programs do not coincide..the Radheshyam temple program ends at 2 PM while the CNFS program does not start till 5 PM. So, if you are really enthusiastic you can have a double Dashain celebration!
