Dear friends, brothers, sisters, prabhus,
Rasikananda prabhu from our NC sangha has proposed to make a gaudiya vaishnava calendar for our worldwide group. Guru Maharaj was very happy with the idea and we plan on having it prepared to give everyone who attends the Audarya temple opening in March a calendar for the Gaudiya new year. We need someone from the local group in Finland and Poland to post here your latitude/longitude for your gathering place. Make it the place that you usually gather, as we can't produce one for each individual place in a country. Basically the places we are planning on making calendars for are:
1. Poland
2. Finland
3. North Carolina
4. Costa Rica
5. Audarya/CA.
6. Vrndavana
Someone let me know if you have a good size gathering somewhere besides what I listed and we can see about adding another.
Great to get our own calendar! Will you add all the days missing from the ISKCON one (such as for Srila Sridhar Maharaja), as we have discussed many times before?
Here are the coordinates for Helsinki, Finland: 60°10′ N 24°57′ E.
Yes, we will add dates pertinent to our group.
If you planning to have pictures on the calendar, you can take a look at http://www.flickr.com/photos/12462081@N06/ and maybe select once you like. All pictures are in very high resolution and suitable for printing in large format.
Oh, this is fantastic I dread having to get the ISCKON calendar every year. Its always wrong any way but it is convenient. I really appreciate this service.
Anyone from Poland can give their sangha's coordinates?

Well, its little complicated as we do not stay in the same place. But here I put 3 options- and if there is no no difference between them then we will be able to use the same callendar:
Cracow 50.03 N and 19.91'E
Warsaw 52.25N and 21.00'E
Lublin 51.25'N and 22.56'E
Thanks Braja Sundari. There may not be any difference in the dates, but of those three places, in which one do you most often gather together?

These are the places where we live. I think most devotees live in Cracow area and most meetings also take place there.
