I understand that there are risks to which I may be exposed by participating in this
event (the “Activity”). Such risks include physical and emotional injury, illness,
potential exposure to viruses and bacteria, hospitalization, and death or damage to
me, to property, or to others. I further understand that the University cannot guarantee
that participants in the Activity will not contract transmittable diseases. I appreciate
the character of the risk taken and voluntarily assume all risk of harm. Therefore,
I agree to assume and take on myself all of the risks and responsibilities in any
way associated with my participation in the Activity. I release, acquit and forever
discharge the University and its employees, agents, members, officers, directors,
students and representatives (the “University Releasees” in their official and individual
capacities) from any and all liability whatsoever for any and all damages, losses
or injuries (including death, mental anguish or emotional distress) to persons and/or
property, including but not limited to any claims, demands, actions, causes of action,
damages, costs, expenses (including hospital and medical expenses or deductibles)
and/or attorney’s fees, that occur during, result from, arise out of or relate to
my participation in the Activity. I recognize that this Release means I am giving
up, among other things, rights to sue the University Releasees for injuries, damages
or losses I may incur. I also understand, and agree, that this Release binds my heirs,
executors, administrators, successors, assigns and personal representatives, as well
as myself.
