GREEN RIVER — Green River High School’s fall sports teams are spending the final weeks of summer preparing for the upcoming season through camps, clinics and preseason workouts before official practices begin in August.

The Green River football team recently wrapped up its Wolves Youth Football Camp, the first hosted under new head coach Brennan Walk. The camp ran from Friday through Wednesday and gave young athletes from grades three to eight an opportunity to work with the program’s coaching staff.
