I understand risks may be caused in whole or in part by my own/my child’s actions/inactions, the actions/inactions of other participants, or the acts, inaction or negligence of the Released Parties defined below, and I hereby expressly assume such risks and responsibility for any damages, liabilities, losses or expenses which are incurred by me or child as to this event.
I represent that I/my child is in proper physical condition and is not using prescription drugs impairing ability to safely participate.
