Beacuse of a large number of telephone requests, Durga Puja pre-registration was extended till midnight today, Oct 1, 2008 at www.gsca.us. As all of you know after 9/11 all facilities are under very strict supervision and surveillance. We must adhere to fire, life and safety regulations and therefore, cannot admit more than the allowable capacity of our facility. We have a larger facility and will allow on site registration until the capacity is reached. Last year this happened around late afternoon and we had to disappoint many who came from far away places. We directed them to Ananda Mandir and Bharat Sevashram. However, this year their Puja will not start until Monday, the eve of Saptami. We therefore strongly urge all to pre-register.
