2020 Cross Country Ski Junior Nationals
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Max Kluck. I am a 15 year old cross country skier from Butte, Montana. I have been skiing my whole life and recently qualified for Junior Nationals in Truckee, California. This is the highest level ski race for 14 and 15 year olds in the United States. Throughout the winter I have been competing at Junior National Qualifier races for a spot on the team going to Nationals. I qualified 2nd in my age group of 50 skiers within the Intermountain Division which includes Montana, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming.
Due to the fact that Nationals are in Truckee, CA this year it makes it a very expensive trip. I will be staying for 10 days and competing in 4 races. I also have to pay for my team to prepare my skis and provide my food. This added to the travel cost quickly adds up and makes this trip hard to afford.
My goals this year are to place top 10 in a few races. This should be achievable because last year I raced at Nationals my best place was 28, but I crashed during the race I expected to do my best in. This year I am at the top end of my age range, and I am in better shape than I ever have been. Your donations could help me achieve or surpass my goals at Nationals.
If you would consider donating to help me achieve my goals it would be much appreciated. This will help me racing in Truckee, and let me chase my goals for the future.
