Did you know that sparklers burn at around 2,000°F? That’s hot enough to melt aluminum, brass, and copper. Sparklers are the 2nd highest cause of emergency room visits during July 4th celebrations.
Small children shouldn’t handle sparklers, and adults should use care while they’re lit.
“We want citizens to have fun, but more importantly we want them to be safe.” — Curtis Garr, Marion Fire Chief
