Up here in Jersey we have many fire companies who sponsor public fireworks displays by licensed pyrotechnic professionals. One thing I've never heard of is a fire company actually selling fireworks. But, different traditions happen in various places. I know those in much of the nation have trouble understanding our fire companies having club liquor licenses as fund raisers.
