I, the below named volunteer, regard this waiver as consideration to act as a volunteer for the Cumberland River Compact on the following terms:
ASSUMPTION OF RISKS
I understand that I am going to engage in a volunteer activity that has certain known and unknown risks that could result in physical or mental injury, death, illness, disease, or property damage to me or to other third parties.
I understand these risks, inherent in this outdoor activity, and voluntarily assume to participate in this event. I agree to adhere to all safety instructions from the event staff and to remove myself from any situation I may find hazardous to myself or beyond my physical capabilities.
RELEASE
I hereby release the Cumberland River Compact, it’s directors, officers, employees, agents, independent contractors, volunteers and sponsors (all of whom are referred to as the Releasees in this form) and any sponsors of the event from any and all liability for any loss, damage, injury or expense that I may suffer as a result of my participation in this event, including if caused by the negligence or gross negligence of any of the Releasees.
I hereby hold harmless and indemnify the Releasees from any and all liability, claims, actions or damages without any limitation whatsoever (including attorneys’ fees), whether consisting of loss, property damage, death or personal injury to me, my next of kin or any third party, resulting from my participation in this event.
I and my next of kin are duly aware of the risks and hazards inherent in this outdoor activity. I hereby voluntarily assume all risks of loss, illness, disease, damage, or injury that may be sustained by me or to any property while in or upon said premises or engaged in said event.
I recognize and agree that I am not allowed to participate in any of the above listed activities unless I sign this Waiver, and therefore I am receiving a benefit in exchange for signing this Waiver and it is binding on me. I agree that this Waiver is also binding on my heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives.
PHOTO RELEASE
I consent to the use of, publication, distribution and display of pictures photographed on or about the date of the event in which I may appear, without restriction of any kind or nature whatsoever. I understand that I will not receive compensation, whatever the nature, now or in the future for the consent given herein.
MEDICAL RELEASE
I hereby give my consent to for Releasees to obtain and/or provide medical treatment for me, if necessary. I accept financial responsibility for the costs related to this medical treatment. I also hereby release and forever discharge any Releasees from any claim whatsoever that arises or may arise on account of any first aid, treatment, or other medical services rendered to me in connection with an emergency during this activity.
INVALID PROVISION
If any provision or any part of any provision of this document shall for any reason be held to be invalid, unenforceable, or contrary to public policy or any law, the remainder of the document shall not be affected thereby.
I have read and understand this waiver and hereby agree to participate in this event.
