Release of Liability I, the undersigned, hereby agree that (participant's name) will take part in the following activities sponsored by or connected with Colorado Christian University New Student Retreat.
I am over the age of eighteen (18) years and understand and agree that neither Colorado Christian University nor any of its agents, officers, trustees, representatives, or employees may be held liable in any way for any occurrence in connection with (participant's name) participation in the Activities that may result in injury, death or other damages to me or my family, heirs or assigns to my property. I agree further to save and hold Colorado Christian University and its officers, agents, trustees, or representatives, and employees harmless from and against any claim by me, my family, estate, heirs, agents, representatives, guardians, conservators, or assigns, or anyone claiming through or under me or on my behalf, arising out of my participation in Activities referred to herein.
By signing this Release I intend to exempt and release Colorado Christian University and its officers, agents, trustees, representatives and employees, including but not limited to, any and all faculty sponsors of or participants in the Activities, from liability whatsoever from personal injury, property damage, or wrongful death, whether such is caused by negligence or otherwise.
I UNDERSTAND AND HEREBY AGREE TO ASSUME ALL OF THE RISKS WHICH MAY BE ENCOUNTERED IN THE ACTIVITIES REFERRED TO HEREIN INCLUDING ACTIVITIES PRELIMINARY AND SUBSEQUENT THERETO. I hereby agree to hold Colorado Christian University and its officers, agents, trustees, representatives, and employees harmless from and against any and all liabilities, actions, causes of actions, claims, expenses, and damages suffered on account of any injury to me or my property, even injury resulting in death, which I now have or which may arise in the future in connection with my participation in the Activities or any activities, acts, or events associated therewith, including but not limited to any transportation provided or involved in such Activities.
I expressly agree that this Release agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the laws of the State of Colorado and that if any portion of this Release is held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, it is agreed that the balance of the Release shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect. This Release contains the entire agreement between Colorado Christian University and me and the terms of this Release are contractual and not mere recital.
I give this Release in consideration of being allowed to participate in the Activities. I acknowledge that, but for this Release, I would not be allowed to participate in the Activities and that being allowed to participate in the Activities constitutes full and sufficient consideration for all provisions of this Release.
I further state that I HAVE CAREFULLY READ THE FOREGOING RELEASE AND KNOW THE CONTENTS THEREOF AND THAT I SIGN THIS RELEASE AS MY OWN FREE ACT. This is a legally binding agreement which I have read and understand.
