- I wish to participate in a recreational activity sponsored by the city of Elk River, Minnesota (the “city”).
- My participation in the activity is voluntary. I acknowledge that participating in the activity carries with it certain inherent risks that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. I know and am aware of all the dangers associated with my participation in the activity and with such knowledge assume any and all such risks while participating in the activity.
- To the best of my knowledge, I am physically fit and have no physical or medical conditions that would prevent me from participating in the activity. I acknowledge that the city recommends that prior to participating in the activity, I should first consult with my physician and abide by any limitations set by my physician.
- I understand and agree that neither the city, or any person acting on behalf of the city, may be held liable in any way for any event which occurs in connection with the activity that may result in harm, death, injury or other damage to me. This waiver of liability does not waive liability for any injuries that I obtain as the result of any willful, wanton or intentional misconduct by the city or any person acting on the behalf of the city.
- I agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the city for any expense or liability the city may incur as a result of my conduct, actions or omissions while participating in the activity.
