“We set our sights on purchasing the same gates that will be used at the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi. … All we needed to do was raise $18,000 to pay for it. I figured it would take a year to raise the funds. We started fundraising online — and to date more than 70 percent of the total has been raised,” Krahulec said, adding that the gate was shipped in advance thanks to a down payment.

To complete the total, Colorado businesses and athletes have contributed. Still, $5,000 remains, and the series is seeking additional donations.

"Donek Snowboards, a U.S. board manufacturer, donated money, as did many of the elite athletes from the International Snowboard Training Center (ISTC). In part, Donek wants to help, and in part, its presence can encourage American athletes to get back on U.S.-made products."
