The Bear Creek and New London fire departments intentionally set a farmhouse ablaze last Saturday as part of a training exercise. Firefighters from both departments participated in a live burn training facilitated by Fox Valley Technical College’s fire protection program on County Trunk D in the town of Maple Creek. New London Fire Chief Mark Wilfuer said it’s been about a decade since New London Fire Department last held a live burn training so he appreciated Bear Creek Fire Department extending the invitation.
