To our customers and fans of ‘76 Pro Line, we have a couple pieces of exciting news to share with you.

VP of ’76 Pro Line
First, we’d like to officially introduce and welcome Peter Rogoz to the Spirit of ‘76 team as our ‘76 Pro Line Vice President. Peter has been involved in the fireworks industry for over 15 years and has extensive experience in display operations, wholesale operations, product development, and quality control.
We are so thrilled that Peter is joining Team ‘76! With his help, major developments for the ‘76 Pro Line are on the horizon.
We’d also like to announce that Daniel Haines is stepping down as product manager of ‘76 Pro Line to develop his own display company. Dan’s company Astro Magic FX will focus on designing and producing spectacular fireworks displays using ‘76 Pro Line products as well as providing consulting services in the areas of DOT Compliance, supply chain management, and information management.

Dan has played a huge role at Spirit of ‘76 since he began in 2014. We cannot thank him enough for his commitment and many contributions to ‘76, including but not limited to ‘76 Pro Line product development, trucking management and logistics, facilitation of collaboration among industry partners, and trend-setting display choreography.

Moving forward, we are so excited to grow the ‘76 Pro Line products and services under Peter Rogoz’s direction and to utilize our evolved relationship with Dan Haines to continue producing incredible Spirit of ‘76 displays.
