This release is intended to release and discharge in advance CARD (its directors, officers, employees, volunteers, and agents) from any and all liability arising out of or connected in any way with my VOLUNTARY participation in said RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY. It is understood that this RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY involves an element of risk of accidents INHERENT TO THE RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY, and knowing those risks, I hereby VOLUNTARILY assume those risks. It is further agreed that this Agreement, Waiver, and Release is to be binding on my heirs and assigns.

Photography/Video/Interview/Social Media Release: I hereby authorize CARD to publish photographs and/or videos and/or written or quoted statements taken of/from me and/or of my minor child/ward, and my/our names and information provided in an interview in connection with the publicizing/promotion of CARD, its services, including, but not limited to, newsletters, flyers, publications, websites, social media, public service announcements, news releases, and feature articles. I agree that such reproduction may be edited as desired and used in whole or in part for any and all print, audio-visual, multimedia, online, and/or exhibition purposes in any manner or media, in perpetuity, throughout the world.

I further agree that I and/or my minor child/ward have no rights of ownership whatsoever. I fully understand my/my minor child’s participation involves risks and that his/her/their participation in the RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY is of such value to me and/or them that II fully accept all risks of such participation and assume sole responsibility for any and all losses, illnesses, injuries, costs and damages they or I incur as a result of their or my VOLUNTARY participation in the RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY.

Health and Safety Acknowledgment: I also agree that I and/or my minor child or children will stay home and not participate in the RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY or enter upon or use CARD facilities should I or he, she, or they show any symptoms of illness including cough, fever, or similar flu-like symptoms in advance of any RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY. I also agree I will pick my child or children immediately upon notification that he or she is exhibiting any such symptoms while participating in a RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY.
Credit and Refund Policy: I understand that all refunds will be issued to the original payment method. If cash, Electronic Check Processing, expired credit card, or check were used in the original payment, a check will be issued for the refund amount. In instances where a refund is not allowed, at CARD’s sole discretion, a monetary credit may be added to a customer’s account for future use. In such cases where CARD approves adding monetary credit to a customer’s account, such credit to the account will expire in two years from the date the credit is added.
I HAVE CAREFULLY READ THIS ENTIRE DOCUMENT AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS CONTENTS. I AM AWARE THAT THIS IS A RELEASE OF LIABILITY, CONTRACT, AND RELEASE BETWEEN MYSELF AND CARD, AND I SIGN IT OF MY FREE WILL ON BEHALF OF MYSELF AND/OR MY MINOR CHILD/WARD.
