Wondering if The Villages allows lighting fireworks off on your own property for the 4th of July, especially since most local areas have cancelled fireworks this year.

Saying you heard it on TOTV is not a good defense.

Always many that do shoot fireworks at various times.
Especially New Years Eve.

Whatever the law states....it is enforced about as much as the speed limit and social distancing!

Think of the veterans that have PTSD, then choose not to set fireworks off

Wear shoes. You don't want to step on a hot sparkler.

So to sum it up we can only light up sparklers tomorrow outside wearing shoes.

Better write myself a memo to remember all this.

Sparklers are best. Why would anyone need loud explosives plus the majority of them are illegal. Yes, they are sold. YES they are illegal

Have a little respect for your neighbors. I quite enjoy not having my windows rattle, my pets afraid, and having to go out and pick up the debris afterwards.

Also, don't use hand sanitizer before you light a sparkler because the ethynol in it could lite your hands on fire.
