Required mandatory release and assumption of risk
If you have ever been on a guided tour or trip, joined a workshop or similar activities, you probably have signed such an agreement. It is self-explanatory. All new members who join, and pay their dues are required to agree the terms stated below.
By checking the Terms and conditions box on the membership registration page you are agreeing to the following:
I am aware that travel in civilized and remote areas, by any conveyance, or on foot, contains some inherent risks of illness, injury, delay, or death which may be caused by the negligence of others, forces of nature, or other agencies known or unknown. I recognize that such risks may be present at any time before, during, or after workshops, programs, tours, or any other activity that I am participating in under the arrangement of the Wasatch Camera Club and its agents, affiliates, or associates. I am also aware that medical facilities and services may not be readily available or accessible during part or all of the time during which I am participating in the activity.
As a paid member of the Wasatch Camera Club, and for the right to participate in any workshop, tour or other activities, food and other services arranged for me by the Wasatch Camera Club and its agents and associates in connection with the activity, I have and do hereby fully assume all risks of illness, injury, delay, or death, and hereby fully discharge and release the Wasatch Camera Club and its agents and associates from all actions, claims, or demands for damages resulting from my participation in the activity. I agree that the foregoing obligation shall be binding upon me personally, as well as upon my heirs, executors, and administrators, and on all members of my family, including any minors accompanying me.
I have carefully read this agreement and fully understand its contents. I am aware that this is a release of liability and a contract with the Wasatch Camera Club and its agents and affiliates, and I agree to it of my own free will by checking the box below.
