Fireworks company issues apology for late firework show

Published 3:47 pm Friday, June 1, 2012

The Snoqualmie Fireworks Supply Company last week issued a public apology for the length of a product demonstration held the night of Thursday, May 17.

The company had originally estimated a start time of 7:45 p.m., but weather pushed the start time closer to 9 p.m., causing the demo to go longer than planned.

It was held in part to film the display for customers.

According to the company, film clips detailing the fireworks allow customers to see products in action prior to purchasing, rather than lighting the fireworks off during the weeks the stand is open.

“We will take into consideration the complaints we received for any future product demonstrations. We aim to please our customers while being good neighbors and we sincerely apologize for any irritation some may have experienced from the product demonstration,” the company said in a statement.

“We would like to specifically thank the City of Snoqualmie’s Police and Fire Departments for being on hand to assist and support Snoqualmie Fireworks Supply Company efforts in making sure the event was as safe as possible,” the company stated.
