Residents of Lake Country have the chance to go meet some local firefighters and see them in action on Saturday.
BC Wildfire Service along with six different rural firefighter services are training with the Lake Country Fire Department at Jack Seaton Park to as a collective, improve the response for the upcoming wildfire season.
The training takes place all day Saturday.
The park’s parking lot will be the staging area as the firefighters work, collaborate, and simulate possible scenarios that could play out during a wildfire.
The playground and trails in the area will remain open to the public.
