The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have prohibited the congregation of groups of people.

I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility on behalf of my child(ren)/ward and myself for any injury (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness, damage, loss, claim, action, liability, or expense, including court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees, of any kind, (“Claims”) that I or my child(ren) may experience or incur in connection with my child(ren)’s attendance in activities or participation in RFK programming at PSC. On my behalf, and on behalf of my children, I hereby release, waive, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless RootsForKids and PSC, and their respective employees, agents, representatives, and volunteers from the Claims understand and agree that this release includes any Claims based on the actions, omissions, or negligence of RootsForkids and PSC, and their respective employees, agents, representatives, and volunteers whether a COVID-19 infection occurs before, during, or after participation in any RFK activities at PSC.
I HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY, UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS, AGREE TO ABIDE BY THE POLICIES CONTAINED IN IT AND IN RFK’s COVID-19 HEALTH AND SAFETY PLAN PSC’S COVID-19 HEALTH AND SAFETY PLAN.
