Reaching Richmond Community Collaborative

🎆🇺🇸 Celebrate the 4th of July Safely, Richmond! 🇺🇸🎆
As we gather to celebrate Independence Day with friends, family, and food, the Richmond Fire Department wants to keep everyone safe—and in compliance with the law.

🚫 Reminder: Fireworks are NOT allowed within Richmond city limits.
If you’re celebrating outside the city, please follow these fireworks safety tips:

✅ Fireworks Safety (Outside City Limits)

Only use legal fireworks

Light one at a time, away from people and structures

Keep a water source nearby

Never allow children to handle fireworks

🍔 Grill Smart

Grill at least 10 feet from any building or overhang

Never leave a lit grill unattended

Fully cool coals before disposal

🌞 Stay Cool in the Texas Heat

Drink lots of water

Take shade breaks

Check on elderly neighbors and pets

Let’s celebrate America safely—and responsibly.
Happy 4th of July, Richmond! 🇺🇸🎇
