Practice safe firework practices during the Fourth of July!

The 4th of July is a time for celebrating America with family and friends.  With fun colors and zips and zaps, fireworks are a staple of the celebration.  However, proper precautions have to be made in order to have a safe and fun fourth of July.  Use these tips for firework safety! 

1. Make sure to have a first aid kit or safety kit on hand. 

1. Have a hose or bucket of water to spray on fireworks that have been used. 

1. Rogue fireworks can cause major fire damage if they get out of hand.  Have a fire-retardant blanket or fire extinguisher on hand to prevent a fire disaster.
