Settmour Swamp Fighter Practice

Wednesdays 6:30 pm - 10 pm
Nutley, NJ

There are indoor heavy weapon and fencing practices every Wednesday night at the Reformed Church of Nutley. Doors open at 6:30 pm and are open to 10:00pm or so. It costs money to rent this site, so a $5.00 donation is requested! If you have questions please email Sir Tanaka Raiko. Should you get lost, Tanaka's pager is 201-232-9337.

(You can also check out the FighterPractice group at Yahoo!Groups. In the Files section you can find directions to 10 different practices being held in the Eastern PA/NJ/NYC area.)
