Fireworks for Dummies

Types and Descriptions for the Eager

Parachutes
Parachutes are slightly more expensive, ranging between $15-20, but are well worth the price! Shooting up into the air and capable of releasing nearly 100 different colored "parachutes," multiple-shot daytime parachutes are an excellent way to celebrate during the day of the 4th at your barbeque!

Display Tubes
Capable of displaying shapes of flowers, trees, or celestial bodies, display tubes emit beautiful shows all their own! The single tubes usually contain only one effect and cost about $10-15, making them one of the more pricey firework items. Multiple-tube types contain several tubes that fire a few seconds apart, creating multiple effects for one grand fireworks show and can cost upwards of $50.

Depending on your 4th of July budget and visual demands, a fireworks show in your community might bring you all the beauty you're asking for this Independence Day, but for those of you with the true holiday spirit (and budget!), why not explore those road-side firework stands and catch your show on video? These are only a few of the many types of fireworks out there!

OOregon fireworks suck big time, there are NO fireworks that shoot
up in the air at all!!!!
All illegal here.
Please be safe if you are setting off fireworks! A 3rd degree burn
is not a fun thing to have for the rest of your summer vacay.
