Light fireworks safely and responsibly

Boom City may provide a designated lighting area during the season. Whether you use that area or light fireworks somewhere else, always follow posted rules, local laws, product instructions, and basic safety practices.

• Use approved spaces Light fireworks only where it is allowed, away from buildings, vehicles, tents, dry grass, and crowds.
• Keep adult supervision close Children should never light fireworks. Keep spectators, kids, and pets a safe distance back before anything is lit.
• Have water ready Keep a bucket of water, hose, or fire extinguisher nearby, and soak used fireworks before throwing them away.
• Light one at a time Place fireworks on a flat, stable surface, light the fuse, and move away quickly. Never hold lit fireworks in your hand.
• Do not relight a dud Wait at least 20 minutes, then soak it in water. Never lean over or try to restart a firework that did not go off.
• Read every label Follow the printed instructions for each firework, including distance, direction, and whether it is meant for ground or aerial use.
