Importing a Calendar into SharePoint

I am posting this because there has to be a better way to do this then what I just did. To set the background, the client is running Exchange 2003 and MOSS and wants to sync the public calendars between the to. I did some research and it couldn't be done so the next best thing was to move away from the Exchange calendars and use SharePoint calendars inside Outlook. Well viewing a SharePoint calendar inside Outlook is pretty easy but I had some trouble moving the data from the original Exchange calendar to the new empty SharePoint calendar. So my work around was to export the Exchange calendar as a ics and upload it into Google Calendar. I had already being using a tool called SyncMyCal for my personal calendars so I used that to sync the data that was now in Google Calendar to the SharePoint Calendar I had in Outlook. It worked and requried a shower immediately after. Surely there is a better/easier way. I fully expect someone to post the right way to do this using SharePoint.
