Fireworks Safety Tips from the East Grand Forks Fire Department

The East Grand Forks Fire Department would like to give a few reminders about fireworks safety.

- Only use Minnesota-legal fireworks like sparklers, fountains, ground spinners, and snappers.

- Point fireworks away from people and animals.

- Use fireworks in an open area away from trees and houses.

- Extinguish and dispose of spent fireworks in a bucket of water. Do no try to relight a dud.

- Always use caution around fireworks and make sure children are supervised.
