I belong to a SAR Chapter in Central Florida. We are looking to become PB Safety Certified. We can't seem to find an instructor who would teach this class. Do you have any suggestions? Then, we want to price insurance so our Color Guard can provide Honor Functions.
 
Well, it has been a few days since your post and no answers yet. So, here is mine.
I am a SAR member up here in Tennessee. I have no idea what you mean by "PB Safety Certified." We have a color guard and they do on rare occasions fire their pieces in a salute. But I am not aware of any special regulations that they must adhere to. So, I wonder if Florida has some law about this that we in Tennessee do not.
I can only suggest that you contact your state organization, or other local SAR chapters in Florida to see how they handled it.
 
Reading the National Colorguard Manual, it states, unless I misread, that to fire a musket at an event, you needed Black Power safety course certification. Two were mentioned, one from NRA and one from the National Parks Service. These courses are scarce, I have found one that is offered annually in northern Florida not quite the Panahndle.
 
Anything to do With the National Park Service is a waste of time. They tried to tell me my 28 gauge was to small to shoot a 60 gr powder blank. They insisted it would blow up. I shoot this gun every month with 60 grs of 3f and a .530 patched ball. If you are in Central Florida get ahold of Buffalo Bills for information
