Staats, "Coach Charlie," was the ultimate swim coach: motivating, patient, demanding, compassionate and dedicated to his swimmers. His enthusiasm for the sport was captivating. Throughout his coaching career, Charlie fostered his love of swimming in children and adults alike in our local community. He promoted the importance of continually striving for self
improvement, and he pushed values of hard work and persistence in the pursuit of achieving goals. For more information on the CBSMF scholarship, please click here.
