Please read the following, and once you have thoroughly read and agreed to its contents, sign where indicated below.

In consideration of risk of injury while participating in the Events and in consideration for the right to participate in the Events, I knowingly and voluntarily enter into this Assumption of Risk, Release, Covenant Not to Sue and Waiver (this “Release”) and hereby waive any and all rights, claims or causes of action of any kind whatsoever arising out of my participation in the Events, and do hereby release and forever discharge Science ATL, its sponsors and partners and any associated trustees, officers, agents, employees, students and volunteers, of any and all claims, demands, rights, and causes of action of whatever kind or nature, including but not limited to negligence, unforeseen bodily and personal injuries, damage to property, and the consequences thereof resulting from participation in the Events and/or any travel incident thereto, and hereby acknowledge and voluntarily assume all risks associated with the Events.

I acknowledge that there are inherent risks involved in participating in the Events, and I realize that participation in the Events is my choice. I am aware of the risks associated with my participation in the Events, including, but not limited to, the hazards of traveling by automobile or other conveyance; the hazards of working with large groups of people; potential exposure to employees, volunteers, or other individuals, including members of the public, who may be infected with coronavirus; accident or illness; the forces of nature; all manner of foreseen and unforeseen bodily and personal injuries, including death; damage to property; and the consequences resulting therefrom.

I acknowledge that Science ATL, its sponsors and partners do not warrant or guarantee in any respect the physical condition of any facility or equipment used in connection with the Events or the suitability of the Events for my participation. I acknowledge that Science ATL, its sponsors and partners do not provide me with any insurance, whether health, accident, or otherwise, in connection with the Events.

I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to know what personal equipment is required (such as footwear and clothing) and provide the proper personal equipment for my participation in the Events, and to ensure that it is in good and suitable condition. I agree to ask questions to make sure that I know how to safely participate in the Event activities.

I acknowledge that photographs, or video or audio recordings may be made at the Event. I grant to Science ATL all right, title and interest in any and all photographic images and video or audio recordings made by or for Science ATL during my participation in the Events, including, but not limited to, any royalties, proceeds, or other benefits derived from such photographs or recordings. I release Science ATL and its partners from any liability resulting from such usage.

In addition to any other risks posed by participating in the Events, I understand that, despite any safety precautions being taken by Science ATL, by participating in the Events there is a risk of potential exposure to coronavirus or any other harmful virus or bacteria, which may result in illness or death. I release, forever discharge, indemnify and hold harmless Science ATL and its directors, officers, employees, volunteers, successors and assigns from any and all liability, claim, costs or expense related to such risk.

I expressly agree that the terms of this Release, shall be binding upon me and my heirs, executors and assigns, and all members of my family.
