Have a safe and happy 4th!
Every year, people — especially children — are injured by sparklers and fireworks, sometimes with devastating consequences. With Independence Day just around the corner, keep these facts in mind:
🔥 Sparklers can burn at over 1200°F — hotter than melted glass.�
🚫 In Vermont, consumer fireworks are prohibited for sale to anyone under 18 and require permitting for public displays.�
📍 In New Hampshire, laws vary by town, but anyone under 21 is prohibited from purchasing or using fireworks.�
👀 Always supervise children around any type of sparkler or smoke novelty.�
🧯 Keep a bucket of water or hose nearby in case of fire or malfunction.
For a safe and festive Fourth, enjoy fireworks at a professionally organized, supervised display. Let’s celebrate responsibly!
