The Wood River boys and girls cross country teams will work to stay healthy and be consistent throughout the new season for head coach Matt Cantrell.
“We have tons of potential, we just have to prove it,” noted Shelton cross country coach Matt Walter of his boys and girls teams entering his 18th season of coaching the Bulldog harriers. “We gained a lot of experience last year.” The teams’ slogan this season is, “No shortcuts. Work for it.”

Residents may submit yard nominations for Yard of the Month from the first through the 15th of each month, through October. Nomination addresses can be submitted along with an optional photo to yardsofgib-bon@ gmail.com.
