im trying to organize a family reunion where i can shoot off my fireworks at the end.
im not really shure where to start looking. i see there are fireworks clubs ,but my
first thought was its like a gun range where people take turns shooting all day and night long ,im looking more for like a park where you can have a bbq and have a conversation without having to scream over the fireworks during the day with fireworks only at night. pointing in the right direction would be much appreciated. tanks

if you could get a permit for somewhere that would be a great start

permit sounds like alotta work dont i need to like prove im doing everything safely or have a ATF license , so far up till now i was kinda a rebel shooting off fireworks n not caring bout laws ,but i plan on having alot of family at the reunion so im tryin not to have the police called out ... whats involved in gettin a permit , are they hard to get?

would be a good start to know your approx where abouts.
For permits, you generally start with contacting your AHJ (Authority having jurisdiction). That varies from state to state. could be anywhere from a fire marshall, to mayor of town, to twp supervisor, fire chief, codes enforcement officer, etc.

My first permit not to scare you was torture..lol... Fire Chief took to town meeting and had it voted on... Then didnt deliver or hear from him till day of the show when he showed up with it.. Now i get it in a matter of a week when applying...

He wanted a diagram of layout, feet from objects of obstruction..like tree or powerline... and experience I have
