Fireworks refresher: Tips for fire-safe July Fourth fun
A person holds a flickering sparkler between their hands; it illuminates a small area with its glow
As you make Independence Day plans, prepare for fun and safety, too. Care with campfires and fireworks is critical, as Michigan continues its run of unusually dry weather that puts fields and forests at risk for wildfire.

If you choose to use fireworks over the July Fourth holiday, the following tips can help avoid injuries or sparking a wildfire.

Do:

Supervise kids with fireworks and sparklers. Keep fireworks away from your face.
Use fireworks only on a flat paved or gravel surface. Spray down the area with water before you start and when you're done.
Toss used fireworks and sparklers into a bucket of water.
Keep a water source ready to spray embers from fireworks.
Don’t:

Try to reignite “dud” fireworks that don’t go off. Wait 15 minutes, then place them in a bucket of water.
Launch fireworks into forests or fields where dry grass or leaves could ignite.
Aerial fireworks such as Roman candles and bottle rockets are not allowed at Michigan state parks, harbors or trails. Smaller novelty fireworks such as fountains, sparklers and ground spinners are permitted in campgrounds.

"Fun, spark-free alternatives to fireworks include ribbon dancers, paper confetti poppers, glow-in-the-dark bubbles and glow sticks," said DNR Parks and Recreation Division Chief Ron Olson.

Sky lanterns are not allowed on DNR-managed public lands. They leave wires that can entangle wildlife and foul equipment, and they have the potential to start wildfires.

Some interesting history

05/17/2023

So the ballots have been sent and just wanting everyone to know what really is going on here. In the past 4 years the drain field has been redone in the Campground. The electric has been completed so we now have 2 50 amp sites. We have purchased a GMC Denaili 1/2 ton pick up truck. And a Kubota tractor..... Over 55K without using any of our reserve funds. A dues increase has been attempted on 3 different occasions and failed.. The trash fees were increased for the households within the sub. Every possible increase they can do. And now they are asking for a special assessment to buy a 50K grader truck... When is this board gonna live within there means and not have to have new. Maintenance needs to be done on these vehicles instead of buying new.... or new to you. We operate on a tight budget, we always have and nothing is gonna change that. You can't expect that 85 homes within the sub is gonna fund a million dollar association. VOTE NO on the special assessment.
