Phoenix Swords Presentation

I wish to thank my friends Frank and Holly Hunt for this next recording, which is of a sword show which they and others from Phoenix Swords put on in the fall of 2006 for the congregation of Wellspring United Methodist Church of Shrewsbury Massachusetts. You'll hear some verbal descriptions of their equipment and actions. (At the beginning, you can hear my friend Bob checking out my Garmin GPS device).
