The undersigned, being at least 18 years old, has read and signed the following release (hereinafter referred to collectively as “I”).
I hereby have given permission for myself and my child(ren) to participate in the Ijams Nature Center Inc. program (hereinafter referred to as “Ijams”) and I am aware that such activities may pose certain risks and dangers. The risks associated with the program include, but are not limited to, obstacles, rough terrains, debris, trail conditions, changing weather conditions, contact with allergenic plants and wildlife, exposure to communicable disease, stinging insects, loss or damage to personal property, injury such as scrapes, cuts and bruises, and though extremely rare, more serious injuries due to events which are beyond the control of the organization and/or program instructors. I understand that while the organization and its staff will make every reasonable effort to minimize exposure to myself or my child(ren), not all dangers, hazards and perils can be forseen. I understand that as participants, my child(ren) and I have a personal responsibility and duty to learn and follow all safety standards, guidelines, and procedures established by the program staff and will make every effort to make staff aware at any point during the activity in which I, or my child(ren), question our knowledge of these standards, guidelines and procedures, or our ability to participate.
I understand and assume all dangers and risks associated with this program and waive all claims or causes of action arising from my own participation or my child(ren)’s participation in the program and do hereby release Ijams and all persons and agents from liability which I may have against Ijams, its successors and assigns, its officers, employees, volunteers, agents, and their heirs, executors, and assigns. My signature on this document is also intended to bind my successors, heirs, representatives, administrators and assigns.
