2024 Meridian Fire Department Fireworks Display Inspection Registration Deadline

Fire Departments,

Fireworks America will be giving a class on how to inspect aerial firework displays at The Public Safety Training Center in Meridian, Idaho on April 26th, 2024.  This will be based on rules and regulations of Idaho Laws, NFPA 1123, American Pyrotechnic Association, Pyrotechnic Guild International, and Trade Standards.  This class is a great refresher for those who have been inspecting for years and for those who have never inspected before.  We will include hands-on training on what to look for, good and bad.  Please know that we will not be teaching Fire Departments how to shoot fireworks or our company policies.  This class is solely about how to inspect and ensure your firework companies are being safe for everyone.

Since we only have emails to the Fire Departments we deal with on a regular basis, we would appreciate it if this email could be passed on to other Fire Departments.

The attachment has the same details as this email for the convenience of sharing the inspection of aerial fireworks displays training class with others.
