Why can't my team see the shared calendar in the Calendar App?

Options

I created the source sheet and all team members have Editor-can share permissions, however when I created the Calendar in the Calendar App they are not able to see it. My understanding was that if they are shared to the source sheet with Editor permissions that I would not have to select the Sharing: On, however that is the only way they are see the calendar. Am I missing a component in the source sheet?

Thank you for your assistance

Merit

    You have to turn sharing on for someone to be able to view the calendar at all. You can opt to share to domains or publish a link…I use publish for easier sharing. You can also embed the shared calendars in dashboards as web content, which is handy. If you share to domains then people will see a login button, which is sometimes not ideal especially for dashboards. Publishing though will not present a login button…but also will not allow people to edit.
