ASSUMPTION OF RISK and WAIVER – COVID-19: In addition, I specifically acknowledge, that the World Health Organization has declared a worldwide pandemic relating to COVID-19.  COVID-19 is an extremely contagious respiratory illness and is believed to primarily transmit through person-to-person contact and through direct contact with respiratory droplets. The City/Facility/WPC has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19; however, the City/Facility/WPC cannot guarantee that I or my child(ren) or other family members will not become infected with COVID-19. Further, attending the City’s/Facility/WPC facilities or other facilities and participating in City/Facillity/WPC Programs could increase the risk to me and my child(ren)’s of contracting COVID-19. 

By RSVP'ng to this event, I acknowledge that entering the City’s/Facility/WPC facilities and participating in City/Facility/WPC Programs carries with it certain inherent risks related to COVID-19 transmission which may include, but are not limited to: i) the risk of coming into close contact with individual(s) or objects that may carry COVID-19; ii) the risk of transmitting or contracting COVID-19 directly or indirectly, to or from other individual(s); and iii) injuries and complications ranging in severity from minor to catastrophic, including death, resulting from directly or indirectly from COVID-19 or the treatment thereof (the “Inherent Risks”).  Further, I understand that the risks of COVID-19 are not fully understood, and that contact with, or transmission of, COVID-19 may result in risks including but not limited to loss, personal injury, sickness, death, damage and expense, the exact nature of which are not currently ascertainable, and all of which are to be considered Inherent Risks. Furthermore, by clicking on the Agree to Waiver checkbox on this page, I acknowledge, on behalf of myself, and if applicable as a legal guardian of the minor registrant, the contagious nature of COVID-19 and the Inherent Risks, and hereby voluntarily accept and assume the Inherent Risks, including the risk that I, or the minor registrant, may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by attending the City’s/Facility/WPC facilities and participating in City/Facility/WPC Programs and that such exposure or infection may result in risk of personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death, or other losses and expenses. 

I hereby release, covenant not to sue, and agree to discharge, and hold harmless the City/Facility/WPC, its employees, volunteers, agents, and representatives, of and from the any and all actions, causes of actions, claims, demands for damages, loss or injury, accident or illness, including death, and property loss (the “Claims”), in any way related, directly or indirectly, to the risks assumed hereby. I understand and agree that this release includes any Claims based on the actions, omissions, or negligence of the City/Facility/WPC, its employees, agents, and representatives, whether a COVID-19 exposure or infection occurs before, during, or after participation in any City/Facility/WPC Programs. I, on behalf of myself, and if applicable as a legal guardian of the minor registrant, agree that this Assumption of Risk and Waiver shall be binding on our heirs, executors, successors, trustees, administrators, personal representatives, and assigns.
