Fireworks Sales Begin

Posted: Updated:

Fireworks stands are reminding us that Independence Day is right around the corner.

The Fourth of July is just one week from today --and the tradition is to celebrate with a big bang --which means people have started stocking up on fireworks.
Today is the opening day for firework sales across North Dakota.. a kick off to the Fourth of July festivities.
With the ever growing population of Minot, Lizotte Fireworks is anticipating bigger sales.

(Heather Lizotte, Manager, Lizotte Fireworks) "We sold out of all of our big stuff by July first last year so this year we got a bunch of new stuff, a lot of variety of everything this year. More product than we had last year just because it was so busy."

The selling of Fireworks is allowed from June 27 through July 5th in the state of North Dakota.
