Safety

Safety is the Crackerjacks’ primary concern. All members are required to know and understand the safety rules, and all club activities are closely monitored to ensure that our members can safely enjoy themselves during club events.
The club’s primary shoot site is a spacious 50 acres. This allows members to engage in several activities simultaneously, as each activity is cordoned off in its own area. Each area is assigned at least one safety officer who ensures all safety rules are observed by its participants.

The club offers safety training to its members on a wide range of subjects, including storage, handling and transportation, display set-up and operation, and even manufacturing. In conjunction with the Pyrotechnics Guild International, the club regularly sponsors PGI Shooter Certification Classes; this class is required for all members who wish to work with display fireworks. Some members have also gone on to become PGI Certified Trainers.

The safety rules are designed to promote the development of knowledge and skill in the use of fireworks while ensuring the safety of our members and their guests. This requires everyone to conduct themselves responsibly and to comply with all safety officer directives. If you’re considering joining the club, please familiarize yourself with our safety rules .
