Celebrate Safety
Retail fireworks stands open across the state on June 28th.  When celebrating Independence Day, remember the three B’s of fireworks safety:

  • Be Prepared—Have water nearby and put pets indoors
  • Be Safe—Only adults should light fireworks
  • Be Responsible—clean up fireworks debris

Don’t take any chances, be sure the fireworks you purchase are legal to possess and discharge.  Know the dates and times fireworks are allowed in your community.  Stay away from high powered illegal explosive devices.  Do not alter fireworks or make any type of homemade device. The damage they cause can be devastating and life altering.
