Guidance for July 4th Celebrations

As a matter of public safety, homeowners need to remember that there are restrictions on the types of fireworks and displays permitted in Frederick County.  Please consult the Frederick County website, specifically, Fire and Rescue:  Fire Marshal’s Office.  There is an Approved Fireworks List on a drop-down menu.
There have been reported incidents in past years where nearby homes were threatened with fireworks launched from one Lot that landed on houses on other Lots and cars nearby.  This is a matter of grave safety concern; not just fire, but an errant “rocket” could injure nearby children and adults.
Further, you may be held responsible for actions taken by your guests should they violate Virginia law.
