Flagler County Land Management assists Central Florida Prescribed Fire Council instructing wildland fire training class in Apopka
Twenty-one students from nine different organizations across the state of Florida participated in the training.
Flagler County Prescribed Fire Program Supervisor Michael Orlando last week shared his expertise in the field as one of 15 instructors who taught basic wildland fire training at Wekiwa Springs State Park in Apopka on behalf of the Central Florida Prescribed Fire Council.
“I am very passionate about what I do, and I love teaching others who have a budding interest in fire management fighting wildfires,” Orlando said. “We depend on each other so much when we are working together out in the field, so I’m happy to do whatever I can to prepare fellow wildland fire professionals.”
