For most folks, June marks the start of a long, hot summer. For Pyrotex, June marks a new year with new recruits at our annual PyroCamp. This year, June represents our 23rd PyroCamp and our 36th year of business, making us the oldest Texas-based professional pyrotechnic display company.
(Your mama always said 'Shop Local', right?)
Pyrotex is unique to our competitors in many ways, but one of the most significant is that we fully train all of our employees and do not use contract labor.
Our first PyroCamp in 1993 hosted 30 employees in a tent.
2015 also allowed us to introduce our new logo to our employees who gave it rave reviews!
Each year, all of our employees is subjected to ATF background and drug testing, followed by a full day of classroom and hands-on training. At the end of the day, we fire a show we have built throughout training to the delight of the surrounding neighbors.
With the unpredictable May weather, we were unsure if we could load and fire the show this year. Our firing site was essentially a mud-pit, so we had to roll up our sleeves and resort to Plan B to make the show happen.
But, at the end of the day, the weather had cleared and we were able to enjoy the fruit of our labor, the reward we get at the end of every shift, a beautiful firework display that we are able to share with the world!
Now that our new recruits are trained and ready, it is up to you, our loyal fans, to help keep their skills up. Call Paige today at 469-534-0635 or email to Paige@Pyrotex.com to add fireworks to your next event.
