There have been private fireworks over the lakes as far back as I can remember. I recall my friend's camp back in the 60's having a pipe cemented into a portion of a dock, pointing up, angled just right, just for fireworks.

Each year, our neighbors on East Bear Island treat us with a grand display of fireworks. One even triggers them remotely from shore. 💥 🎆

I know I'll be criticized for being a downer. But as much as I enjoy a good fireworks show, the increasing number of private ones going on all summer is concerning given new items such as this one.

And each group will say, "how can my little show make a difference?". But when 1000 homes around the lake all say the same thing...
