RELASE FROM LIABILITY

In consideration of the acceptance of my child’s application, as a participant in the Junior Lifeguard Program, I hereby agree to assume all risks attendant upon my child while participating in the Junior Lifeguard program. I understand and acknowledge that the ocean and beach are unpredictable and inconsistent environments and that these activities, by their very nature, pose the potential risk of serious injury/illness or death to individuals who participate. I hereby waive, release, and discharge any and all claims for damage for death, personal injury or property damage which my child may have, or which may hereafter accrue to my child, as a result of my child’s participation in the Junior Lifeguard Program. I agree to save and hold harmless from liability Corolla Lifesaving Association, Inc., Corolla Beach Rescue, Inc., the county of Currituck, all sponsors, their representatives and successors and/or any of their officers, agents, volunteers, or employees by reason of accident, death, injury, or damages to persons or property which my child may suffer while participating in the Junior Lifeguard Program. This release is intended to discharge in advance Corolla Lifesaving Association, Inc., the county of Currituck, all sponsors, their representatives and successors and/or any of their officers, agents, volunteers, or employees by reason of any accident, death, injury, or damages to persons or property which my child may suffer from and against any and all liability arising out of or connected in any way with my child’s participation in the Junior Lifeguard Program, even though that liability may arise out of negligence or carelessness on the part of the persons or entities mentioned above.

I further understand that serious accidents or death can occur during aquatic and marine activities; and that participants in aquatic and marine activities occasionally sustain mortal or serious personal injuries, and/or property damage, as a consequence thereof. Knowing the risk of aquatic and marine activities (swimming, surfing, lifesaving, bodysurfing, kayaking, and the like) nevertheless, I hereby agree to assume on behalf of my child those risks and to release and hold harmless all of the persons or entities mentioned above who (through negligence or carelessness) might otherwise be liable to my child (or my child’s heirs or assigns) for damages. It is further understood and agreed that this waiver, release and assumption of risk is to be binding on the heirs and assigns of my child. I agree to assume all responsibility for any property damage or injury to any person caused by my child while participating in the Junior Lifeguard Program.
