🇺🇸🎆 Happy Fourth of July, Wilton! 🎆🇺🇸

As you enjoy time with family and friends, the Wilton Fire Protection District would like to share a few safety reminders:

✅ Use only Safe and Sane fireworks purchased from local nonprofit fireworks stands. Be sure to look for the State Fire Marshal Seal.

✅ Light fireworks only on a paved surface, away from dry grass, vehicles, and structures.

🚫 Don't try to impress your family, friends, and neighbors by using illegal fireworks. Save those for the professionals. Illegal fireworks are unpredictable and can cause injuries, fires, and significant property damage.

✅ Keep a hose or bucket of water close by.

✅ Never leave children unattended around fireworks.

✅ Soak used fireworks in water before throwing them away.

The best fireworks are the ones that end with great memories, not trips to the emergency room or a visit from us.

Help us keep Wilton safe and fire-free this Fourth of July. Have a fun, safe, and happy Independence Day!
