From Invitation from Vaiseiska Prabhu

" During 2011, we all worked hard and together accomplished much. But, none of these achievements happened by chance. Behind each triumph was a sincere devotee or group of devotees who gave their best efforts (often time herculean) to serve Krishna.

 Now let us pause to acknowledge and appreciate all these wonderful devotees in our midst. By doing so we will grow closer as a community and will attract the favor of Krishna who is Bhakta-vatsala, the lover of His devotees.

 On Sunday, February 19th, starting at 10am in Gauranga Hall (just across the street from 951 Bascom), we will come together for Devotee Appreciation Day. Please be punctual in order to honor all of the ISV devotees.

Get ready for bhajans, games, great prasadam and the association of all the devotees at ISV.

Please join us!

When: Sunday, February 19th at 10am-3pm.
Where: Gauranga Hall (across the street from 951 S. Bascom)
What: Bhajans, Krishna katha, fun, games, prasadam.

I'm very eagerly looking forward to your association.

With deep gratitude,
Your servant,
Vaisesika Dasa"

IMPORTANT PARKING INSTRUCTIONS: We will NOT be able to park in any of the spaces in front of the shops next to
 the temple. (Including the Check Cashing store, the barber shop, etc.) We will also not be able to park along the wall adjacent to the temple. The landlord of these shops has a new parking policy and will tow any cars parked there that are not patrons of their shops.

Street side parking is available on streets near the intersection of Del Mar Ave and Lynnhaven Dr (for example on Lynnhaven Dr, on Roenoke Way, on Del Mar Ave, etc.). If you park your car in front of a home, please do not block their driveway. Del Mar Ave runs parallel to Bascom ave. There is a small drive way (belongs to Steetlight Records; you can see this on Google maps satellite view) that joins Bascom and Del Mar Ave
 located in between Lynnhaven Dr and Roenoke Way. This is a short cut way to walk to the temple after parking your car.
