NO FIREWORKS… Game, Fish and Parks Department officials ask you to please leave fireworks at home if you’re spending the Fourth at a state park.
    State parks director Doug Hofer says campgrounds are traditionally very busy with campers and other visitors enjoying the parks during the Independence Day period.  He says fireworks and large crowds can create a dangerous situation.
    Discharging fireworks is prohibited on all lands owned or leased by the South Dakota Department of Game, Fish and Parks. The ban includes state parks, recreation areas, lakeside use areas, game production areas and nature areas. Discharging fireworks is also illegal within the boundaries of the Black Hills Forest Fire Protection District, national forests and national parks in South Dakota.
