In consideration of my desire to serve as a volunteer for trail maintenance, construction and habitat restoration efforts to be conducted by Amador Trail Stewardship (ATS) I hereby assume all responsibility for any and all risk of property damage or bodily injury that I may sustain while participating in any voluntary trail work effort or other activity of any nature, including the use of equipment and facilities of the ATS. 

I, for myself and my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, hereby release, waive and discharge ATS and its officers, directors, employees, agents and volunteers of and from any and all claims, demands and causes of action which I or my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns ever may have against any of the above for, on account of, by reason of, or arising out of such volunteer efforts or my participation therein, and hereby waive any and all such claims, demands and causes of action.

 I expressly agree that this release agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the State of California, and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, it is agreed that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.

 I hereby warrant that I currently have no known mental or physical condition that would impair my capability for full participation in any of the volunteer activities intended or expected of me. 

I hereby release and forever discharge ATS from any claim whatsoever which arises or may hereafter arise on account of any first aid, treatment, or service rendered in connection with my volunteer activities with ATS. 

I understand that ATS volunteer activities include work that may be hazardous to the volunteer, including, but not limited to, trail construction, trail maintenance, and transportation to and from the work sites. I hereby expressly and specifically assume the risk of any injury or harm that may arise out of such activities and release ATS from all liability for injury, illness, death, or property damage resulting from such activities. 

I acknowledge that this Release is a contract with legal consequences and not a mere recital, that I have been advised to read it carefully before signing, and that I sign my name as my own free act and deed as of the day and year first written below. 

As a volunteer, I understand that, except as otherwise agreed to by ATS in writing; ATS does not carry or maintain health, medical, or disability insurance coverage for any Volunteer. Each Volunteer is expected and encouraged to obtain his or her own medical or health insurance coverage. Amador Trail Stewardship has general liability insurance.

I hereby grant and convey unto ATS all right, title, and interest in any and all photographic images and video or audio recordings of me made by ATS during my volunteer activities with ATS, including, but not limited to, any royalties, proceeds, or other benefits derived from such photographs or recordings.

I, THE UNDERSIGNED, HAVE CAREFULLY READ THIS RELEASE, I FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS AND I UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE GIVEN UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS BY SIGNING IT. I HAVE SIGNED IT FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY WITHOUT ANY INDUCEMENT, ASSURANCE, OR GUARANTEE BEING MADE TO ME AND I INTEND MY SIGNATURE TO BE A COMPLETE AND UNCONDITIONAL RELEASE OF RELEASED PARTIES TO THE GREATEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW.
