USASA explains it in the above link; summary: they are out a ton of money due to the cancellation of the 2020 USASA Nationals at Copper this year--we all know why.  As a result, they are in dire need of funds to keep the non-profit alive.  To be clear: if USASA dies out or scaled back it would be a major, major blow to snowboarding in the United States; for Alpine, I cannot think of a worse blow not only to all of us as participants (in USASA or hardbooting in general) but the vendors we love so dearly as they rely on USASA based youth competitors as a major source of income. 

I encourage you all to at least donate something; or bid on an item as there are several that may be of interest.

To be clear, the closure or drastic scale-back of USASA will ripple through the boutique equipment industry and ultimately effect every single person on the forum in a negative way.  However, and less on the nose--this is a wonderful organization that gives a lasting and deep appreciation of snowboarding to hundreds of youths every single year and is the only organization that allows adults to compete in snowboard competitions.  

Please donate / bid what you can, and thank you.
