        (initial)

Notification: In case of injury, illness, or any situation that could require medical attention during or by reason of a GIGSB program or excursion, it is understood that a conscientious effort will be made to notify the child’s parent or guardian before medical attention or other necessary action is taken. If a parent or guardian cannot be located in a timely manner, I understand that the expense of this service will be accepted by the child’s parent or guardian on record. In the event that such care or medical treatment is deemed by GIGSB to be necessary, I agree to release GIGSB from any liability in connection with such care or medical treatment.       (initial)
