Prescribed burn coming soon in Kenna Cartwright Park

KAMLOOPS — After a trial run proved successful last spring, the City of Kamloops will once again conduct a controlled burn inside Kenna Cartwright Park.

This time, however, the burn will be ten times larger than last year’s four-hectare project.

Nature Parks Crew Leader Kirsten Wourms says site preparation for the burn will take place starting today above Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre.

She notes if conditions are good, the public could see flames there later this week.
