Hare Krsna,
Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Denver had a great month in April. It was the No. 1 temple in the Medium Temple category worldwide. There’s a nice temple president there, Tusta Krsna Prabhu, who previously was a full-time book distributor for about fifteen years. Because of his acquired taste for book distribution, he encourages the devotees to do as much book distribution as they can. The Denver devotees did 3,898 book points, for a 44% increase over the same month a year ago. I was just listening to a morning walk with Srila Prabhupada, senior devotees, and some Denver devotees — recorded when he was visiting Denver in 1975. The local devotees told Prabhupada that the devotees distribute a lot of books in Denver, and Srila Prabhupada responded, “That is the success of a temple.”
Your servant,
Vijaya Dasa

FAIR PLAY RULES
1997 GBC Resolution #103: That the score system for the Sankirtan Newsletter
is changed to include the following for individual distribution:
1. The category "Regular"
(a) to count only literature which is actually sold for some profit
(ideally double BBT price) and given into the hands of the
receivers personally.
(b) literature distributed by accepting post dated checks shall only
be counted when at least the BBT price has been received.
2. The new category "Subsidized" for the following methods of distribution
for individuals:
(a) devotees working in teams of two or more and recording their group
effort as one score.
(b) subsidized books which are sold for BBT price or less.
(c) sponsored books which are given to people who can value them
(i.e. VIPs, libraries, schools, prisons, etc.).
Those individuals who are doing these types of subsidized distribution
must specify it when reporting scores to the newsletter. Temple and
Country scores stay the same. There is no need to report temple scores
in two categories.
3. Free distribution
Free distribution by individuals and temples who give out literature
free of cost shall not be counted in the newsletter (except as provided
for in "Subsidized" above).
Note: Individuals distributing an unusually large number of books will
automatically be put in the Special Teams Unlimited (Subsidized) category
unless they explain why they belong in the Regular category.
