Some of our Fire Academy cadets recently attended a BBQ at the Hurst Jaws of Life facility. The students got to hang out with members of regional fire departments and the folks from Fire Department Coffee and Fire Department Chronicles. We want to give a big shout-out to Hurst for the invitation! Great friends and great food!

Boone Fire Department would like to announce the promotion of Michael Welch to Fire Captain!

Capt. Welch joined our department as a Volunteer Firefighter in 2017 and was hired as a full-time firefighter in 2018. Michael has spent countless hours throughout his time at BFD training and working with others to grow his knowledge and better himself and the department.

Michael is a Watauga County native and graduated from the Cleveland Community College Fire Academy in 2017, earning the highest GPA in his class. Before joining the ranks at BFD, Michael spent time as a Whitewater Rafting guide and taught ski lessons at Appalachian Ski Mountain for 20 years as well as owning and operating his own business.

Alumni Spotlight ⭐️ Michael Lane

Recently, Cleveland Community College’s Coordinator and Instructor of Fire and Rescue Training received an email from graduate, Michael Lane. In the email, Lane expressed his gratitude and praise for the Firefighter Academy and the faculty and staff associated with it.

In the email, he wrote:
“I want to take the time to thank you all for everything that you have done. The fire academy was head and shoulders above any other training that I have attended. Cleveland Community College has one of the most personable and hard-working staff, and I am proud to say that I was able to be a part of a professional group.

“While attending the College, I met amazing firefighters that I looked up to and I hope to one day follow in their footsteps. I aspire to one day return to the training grounds to continue furthering my education. For now, I will start a job with Carrboro Fire Department and there is no way that I could have done it without going through the academy and learning the character skills and technical skills that will stay with me for the rest of my career and life. I look forward to seeing you all soon and I wish you all the best.”
