Essay contest for children - Deadline extended

[Guest guest]

Dear Sri KrishNa bhaktas,

 

In view of the academic examinations, the last date to submit the essays for

all the age groups has been extended to June 12, 2000

 

We have received a good deal of essays so far from both the age groups and

are very delighted about the level of enthusiasm and interest children are

displaying.

 

Let us participate in this event in a big way and make it a grand success.

 

All the best,

 

Hare Srinivasa,

Regards,

Prahlad Kulkarni
