Participation Agreement
I acknowledge that participation in the Activity described above involves risk to the Participant (and to Participant’s parent/guardian, if Participant is a minor) and may result in various types of injury and/or damage including, but not limited to, the following: sickness, bodily injury, death, emotional injury, personal injury, property damage and financial damage.
In consideration for the opportunity to participate in the Activity described above, the Participant (and the Participant's parent/guardian if Participant is a minor) acknowledges and accepts the risks of injury and/or damage associated with participation in and transportation to and from the Activity. The Participant (and the Participant's parent/guardian if Participant is a minor) accepts personal financial responsibility for any injury or other loss sustained during the Activity or during transportation to and from the Activity, as well as for any medical treatment rendered to the Participant. Further, the Participant (and the Participant's parent/guardian if Participant is a minor) releases and promises to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Sponsor for any injury arising directly or indirectly out of the described Activity or transportation to and from the Activity, whether such injury arises out of the negligence of the Participant, the Sponsor, or otherwise. I (and the Participant's parent/guardian if Participant is a minor) also assume all responsibility for providing transportation from the Activity should it be necessary to leave the Activity for medical, disciplinary or any other reasons.
In the event that an emergency arises necessitating medical or surgical attention and the Participant (or the Participant's parent/guardian if Participant is a minor) is unable to make medical decisions, I for myself or my minor child hereby consent and give my permission to the Sponsor and any attending physicians to make such decisions and to perform such medical treatments and/or surgery on the Participant which may be necessary.

If a dispute over this agreement or any claim for damages arises, the Participant (and the Participant's parent/guardian if Participant is a minor) agrees to resolve the matter through a mutually acceptable alternative dispute resolution process. If the Participant (and the Participant's parent/guardian if Participant is a minor) and the Sponsor cannot agree upon such a process, the dispute will be submitted to a three-member arbitration panel for resolution pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
