result of my participation in the aforementioned Activity, including traveling to and from an
event related to this Activity.  If any child, ward, or other person for whom I stand in loco
parentis participates in the Activity, I consent to this Waiver and Release of Liability on behalf

I UNDERSTAND THAT THESE INJURIES OR OUTCOMES MAY ARISE FROM MY OWN
OR OTHERS’ NEGLIGENCE (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE NEGLIENCE
OF THE RELEASED PARTIES’ THEMSELVES), CONDITIONS RELATED TO TRAVEL,
OR THE CONDITION OF THE ACTIVITY LOCATION(S). NONETHELESS, I ASSUME

be deemed to be written, construed, and enforced as so limited.
