    BIR Float Test:

    Please be advised, if you plan to row on the water with us, you will need to complete a group BIR Float Test* prior to going on the water. BIR offers group Float Tests periodically throughout the year (beginning of each season and LTR classes).

    1. If you are doing a Learn to Row Class, the first evening of the LTR session we will schedule a group BIR Float Test, so you can plan on taking your BIR Float Test at the first class of the session.
    2. In the interim*, if you are a former rower or beginning at a different time (off-season erg training or private lessons), you can call the Bainbridge Aquatic Center (206) 842-2302 to make an appointment for the BI Parks Dept Swim Test prior to going on the water. This is sufficient until you can take the group BIR Float Test (which is more extensive). Let the Aquatic Center know you would like to complete the standard Swim Test and make sure you call before just showing up. These tests are scheduled at the beginning of a weekend open-swim session. You will then need to follow-up with a Group Float Test.
    3. We will accept float tests from another club within the last 10 years. Have it ready and you can upload it below during registration.
    4. If you have a Lifeguard or Water Safety Instructor (WSI) card, a current PADI or similar diving certificate or have a certificate from another rowing organization, please upload it below.

    I AFFIRM I will comply with the BIR policies as they relate to communicable diseases.

    I HEREBY RELEASE, discharge, and covenant not to sue BIR, its officers, directors, members, volunteers, employees, and agents (hereinafter “Releasees”) from all liability, claims, demands, losses, or damages of any kind or nature which may arise out of, result from, or relate in any way to my participation in BIR Activities, including claims caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence of the Releasees or otherwise, whether on the water or off, including negligent rescue operations.

    I further agree that if, despite this release and waiver of liability, assumption of risk, and indemnity agreement, I, or anyone on my behalf, makes a claim against any of the Releasees, I WILL INDEMNIFY, SAVE, AND HOLD HARMLESS each of the Releasees from any litigation expenses, attorney fees, loss, liability, damage, or cost which any may occur as a result of such claim, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
