Safety facts for 4th of July!


We want you to have a safe 4th of July!
* Use fireworks outdoors only.
* Obey local laws. If fireworks are not legal where you live, Do not use them.
* Always have water handy (a hose or bucket)
*Only use fireworks as intended. Do not try to alter them or combine them.
*Never try and light a “dud” firework. Wait 20 minutes and then soak it in a bucket water.
*Use common sense. Spectators should keep a safe distance from the “lighter” and the “lighter” should wear protective eye gear.
*Alcohol and fireworks do not mix. Have a designated “lighter” preferably over 18 years of age
*Only persons over the age of 12 should be allowed to handle sparklers of any type.
*Do not ever use homemade fireworks of legal explosive. They are extremely dangerous. Report illegal explosives to the fire dept or police dept in  your community .
