December 6, 2014 the annual Phoenixville FIrebird Festival will take place.

The parade starts at Bank Street (right across from the Colonial Theatre) at 7:30 with drummers, dancers and puppeteers. Who all will be there is still an unknown, but that’s where improvisation comes in very handy. It will be a mixed group, which can be good, if we keep changing who takes the lead. Its about a 20 minutes walk up to the bird site (0.88 mile). It might sound long, but last year we had a lot of fun with it in snowy weather. The stage will be mic’ed this year for the drumming.
