Waiver of Liability and Release Agreement
Please read carefully. This is a release and waiver of important legal rights.
Although reasonable precautions are taken to provide proper organization, instruction, and equipment for your child's participation in the Monty Tech Summer Camps, there can be no guarantee of absolute safety against injury and accident. There are elements of risk in any activity and in any program. I, on behalf of my child, and myself understand that my child may be involved in activities, including but not limited to art, culinary, graphics, cosmetology, house carpentry and all activities related thereto. I acknowledge that participation by my child in any activity is voluntary and that my child may decline to participate in all activities. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RISKS: I recognize that there is inherent danger in activities, that although the program may not be strenuous, injuries or medical complications may occur; that certain foreseeable and unforeseeable events unique to each activity can contribute to the unpredictability of the activity; and that unfamiliarity with the activities may affect the occurrence of accidents and injuries. EXPRESS ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND RESPONSIBILITY: In recognition of the inherent risks of the activities in which my child will be engaged, both seen and unforeseen, I confirm that my child is capable of participating in activities. I assume full responsibility for personal injury, accidents or illnesses, including death to my child, except to the extent caused by the negligence of Montachusett Regional Vocational Technical School District, or anyone for whom it is legally responsible. I also assume responsibility for loss of or damage to my child's personal property. On behalf of my child, and myself I assume the risk(s) of personal injury, accidents and/or illnesses of all kinds and nature.
AUTHORIZATION: I hereby authorize any medical treatment deemed necessary in the event of any injury to my child while participating in the activities. I have appropriate insurance or, in its absence, I agree to pay all costs of medical services and medical transport as may be incurred on behalf of my child. RELEASE, HOLD HARMLESS AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE: In consideration of my child's participation in the activities, I do hereby for myself, my child and our respective administrators, executors, heirs, spouse, dependents, successors, and assigns, knowingly and intentionally release, forever discharge and covenant not to sue Montachusett Regional Vocational Technical School and the Monty Tech Foundation, its directors, trustees, officers, agents, employees and volunteers (collectively, "Monty Tech") from and against any claims, demands, expenses, actions and causes of action of every name, type, and nature I or we now have or may even have arising out of my child's participation in the activities on the above dates and on any subsequent dates during which he or she participates in the activities.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT: In signing this agreement, I acknowledge and represent that I have fully reviewed it and understand what it means, and that I sign this document as my free act and deed. No oral representations, statements, or inducements, apart from the foregoing written statement, have been made. I further agree that this agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If any of its terms or provisions shall be held illegal, unenforceable, or in conflict with any law, the validity of the remaining portions shall not be affected thereby to the fullest extent permitted by law. I further state that I agree that I, my child and our respective estates, heirs, administrators, personal representatives, and assigns shall be bound by the same.
