JUNIOR RIDER UNDER 18 RELEASE: I, the undersigned parent or guardian of
for consideration of my child’s participation in the above named Ride, do hereby release all persons charged with official capacity in the executive of such Ride from all claims, defends, suits or liabilities which might otherwise arise by virtue ofinjury to my child, and so further agree to indemnify and hold harmless each and every one of them from any and all claims, demands, suits or liabilities which might otherwise arise by virtue of injury to or occasioned by my child or any horse undersuch child’s direction or control. I do further authorize any officer, manager, director or supervisory personnel of the above named Ride, to consent on my behalf to any emergency medical treatment by a properly licensed person, which may be required for my child and so agree to indemnify, and hold harmless anyone giving such consent.
Furthermore, as parent/guardian, I agree to allow my child to participate in the above Ride, which is sponsored by the Redwood Empire Endurance Riders (REER). I have read the rules, conditions and regulations of the ride and agree to comply with them. I am aware that an endurance ride covers difficult terrain on trails where the footing for horses may be unsure. I further acknowledge that competitive or “endurance” horse riding is over considerable distances and contains inherent risks of injury and damage to me personally, to my child, to our horse and to our equipment. I understand that endurance riding involves being in remote areas for extended periods of time, far from communication, transportation, and medical facilities; that these areas have many natural and man-made hazards which ride management cannot anticipate, identify, modify, or eliminate; that horses can be excitable, difficult to control, and unpredictable; and that accidents can happen to anyone at any time. I agree to take full responsibility for myself and the animal I am riding. I will hold AERC, ride management, all ride personnel, REER, and all property owners over whose land the ride passes blameless for any accident, injury or loss that might occur due to my participation in the ride and free from all liability for such injury or loss.Knowing these facts I nonetheless, in consideration of your accepting this entry, do hereby for myself, heirs, executors and administrators, waive and release the above named Ride, The American Endurance Riders Conference, the Redwood Empire Endurance Riders, and all other persons organizations, regardless of their capacity in any way connected with the above named Ride or their representatives, heirs, executors and assigns from any and all right, claim or liability for damages, or for any and all injuries that may be sustained by me or my child, including injuries to animals, or from any kind or nature that I might have. Furthermore, I do hereby acknowledge that said release extends to any accidents, damages or claims arising out of my child’s entry caused by my own act or by the acts of my child or any animal under my supervision or that of my child, if I am not present.
I DECLARE UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY THAT THE FORGOING IS TRUE AND CORRECT.
