My name is Ty Kosek. I have had a dream since I was a little boy, ever since I started my water skiing career, to win a world championship. I finally have that opportunity this coming July. The U21 World Water Ski Championships will be going on in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I am asking if anyone is able to help me accomplish my dream of becoming a world champion. I ask that if you are able to give anything to help me out, it will go a very long way.

I started skiing when I was 2 years old on the side of our boat with my dad and family. I decided to keep doing it and do it for fun for years after that, but then I wanted to start doing competitions. I was doing a competition every weekend, and I really enjoyed it a lot. I started to then take my skiing career more seriously when I was about 13 years old. I then became a national champion when I was 14 years old, something I had also dreamed of up to that point.

I needed a new goal: to win a world championship, something not a lot of people are able to accomplish. I worked hard each and every year. I kept getting better and better, and then I accomplished another goal, going 200 feet in jump. I had dreamed all my life to be able to do this, and I had done it while also becoming one of the top Under 21 jumpers in the world. Up to this point, I am ranked 3rd in the world for Under 21 year olds with a realistic chance to win. I have been able to accomplish every goal before this, and I plan to do the same with this goal.

I again ask for anything that can help me with being able to travel, get food while being there, pay for hotels, and many other things. Please help support me to try and achieve a dream of mine.

Thank you very much for any consideration,

Ty
