Saturday, February 23, 2013 Saturday February 23rd Lake Norman hosted a training burn on Fawn Ln. Training burns are designed to create "live fire" training conditions for firefighters to practice and refine their skills. For some of the newer members this was the first live fire training. Training officer Don Clark is responsible for all that is involved in making the training burns happen here at Lake Norman Fire Dept. In order to host a training burn the state mandates that it must be in the hands of a live burn instructor. Burn instructor Joel Privette along with Captain Chris Goforth, Captain Rob Colvert, Engineer Marcus Perkins and A shift station 4 crew from Mooresville Fire Dept attended. Weather was less than desireable, but it was a successful burn none the less. Engine 2 was primary pumper and Marine 1 was utilized for water supply.
