TERMS OF PARTICIPATION AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY: I certify that the above information is true, accurate, and complete. I recognize there is an element of risk in any activity associated with the outdoors and I voluntarily assume that risk. Knowing the inherent risks and rigors involved, I certify that I am fully capable of participating in SOAR Education (SE) activities and that I wish to do so as a voluntary participant. In consideration of SE providing the Activities, I hereby release any claims for personal injury or property damage against SE (and its agents, employees, directors, officers, and volunteers), arising out of ordinary negligence. I also release such claims arising out of any act by anyone not under the control of SE. I give permission to SE and involved program partners to use photographs and videos for promotional purposes. I acknowledge that I may be asked questions, written or verbal, for evaluation purposes. I agree to make myself aware of and follow all COVID-19 and other safety policies and protocols while traveling with SOAR Education and will take responsibility for any expenses incurred if I should become ill or unable to continue the event. I have read, understand, and accept the terms and conditions stated herein and acknowledge that this agreement shall be effective and binding upon me during the entire period of participation in SOAR Education activities. Nothing in this Release and Indemnity Agreement shall be interpreted as releasing SE from liability for injuries, damage, death, or other loss that may occur within the jurisdiction of the National Park Service or relevant partner agency and is caused by SE gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional conduct, including but not limited to any gross negligence with respect to SE judgments and decision, or SE failure to take reasonable precautions to ensure it provides defect-free equipment (where applicable). This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey without applying its choice of law provisions. If any minor children will be accompanying me, I make the same certification and provide the same release on their behalf. If I am a minor, the signature of my parent or legal guardian makes this certification and provides this release on my behalf.
