How Do You Throw A Bonfire Party?
Formalized bonfire parties have been a tradition around the world since the Middle Ages, with the advent of the first May day celebrations. While you can base your party on these traditions, you can also keep it simple with some firewood, some skewers and a big bag of marshmallows. Find the proper location for your bonfire, consulting with your fire department about local laws and potential restrictions. Choose a location that is far away from trees, power lines, telephone poles, brush and grasses and structures. Build a proper firepit before you throw a bonfire party. Use a shovel to dig a hole in the ground with a diameter of approximately 12 feet, with a depth of about 12 to 18 inches. Fill the bottom of the hole with small rocks and gravel for proper water drainage and surround the rim of the firepit with larger stones to help contain the bonfire. Come up with a theme when you throw a bonfire party. While you can always go with a simple wiener roast, you may want to be creative by
