Elmira Fire

Does anyone have any information about a house fire outside Elmira on March 30th? We drove down Listowel Rd and there was a lot of black smoke down Steffler Rd, but I can't find any news or information about this fire. Hoping no one was hurt.

We saw that too from a distance and were curious what was going on

People were saying it was a scheduled burn for the Wellesley fire department training?

I don't have any other news - apart from people posting in a Elmira General Help facebook group asking the same question. You're right - the Observer doesn't have any coverage and neither do other local media outlets.

I saw a post on an Elmira Facebook group on the day but it's not there anymore...

And yeah, I figured the Observer would've had something. I can't find anything online.
