CG Stars and Stripes Downsizing
Jason Ziegler, of Council Grove Stars and Stripes Fireworks announced Thursday that he will no longer do fireworks shows after his Washunga Days show and the Fourth of July presentation. The company will continue to operate its retail stand on North Union Street in Council Grove, Ziegler said that the decision to step away from pyrotechnics has been long in coming. He said, “I have enjoyed the last 13 years of Washunga Days and 10 years with the 4th of July. They are just getting to be too much to take on with my regular workload. I also am getting burnt out with doing them at the scale we are at.”
