It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of Charles “Charlie” Priester Wilgus, Jr., a beloved participant and friend in the Catalyst Sports community. Charlie brought joy, grit, and an unforgettable spirit to every event he attended, most recently joining us for our Camp & Climb experience in April 2024.
Whether scaling rock walls or exchanging laughs with friends and volunteers, Charlie radiated enthusiasm and determination. His courage in the face of challenges and his genuine connection with those around him left a lasting impact on our entire team.
Charlie reminded us that adventure knows no limits, and that the climb is always worth it when shared with people who believe in you.
Our thoughts are with Charlie’s family and loved ones. We are grateful for the time we shared with him and will carry his memory with us on every climb.
