Burn, baby, burn

Things heated up for Invermere Fire Rescue on Sunday, April 29th, as the department conducted a live burn training exercise in the town’s Industrial Park.

The fire department’s 20 members practised multiple scenarios inside an abandoned property to prepare for real-life fire rescues before setting the building fully ablaze.
