ASSUMPTION OF RISK REQUIREMENT
Schools and Organizations are required to complete the Assessment of Risk agreement to ensure the safety and well-being of students and participants with disabilities while attending the community-based programming hosted at the Wade Shows, Inc. Carnival. As the operating partner responsible for the amusement rides and grounds, Wade Shows requires all supervising educators and caregivers to acknowledge an understanding of the ride policies, potential physical risks, and safety limitations for individuals with physical or intellectual and developmental disabilities. Completing this agreement confirms that supervisors of all attendees are aware of these conditions, can make informed decisions for each individual in their care, and accept responsibility for ensuring safe participation throughout the event.
Please confirm the following:*

- Wade Shows strives to provide the best in family entertainment and recreation for all our guests. Our ride admission policy has been developed to allow each guest to participate in the enjoyment of as many rides and shows as possible.
  
  Wade Shows, Inc. ride admission policy is based on the physical criteria necessary for an individual to safely ride each amusement device. We will allow anyone whom we feel exhibit all the necessary requirements and is not a hazard to themselves or others to ride.
  
  We realize every guest has different abilities and limitations, and may not be completely knowledgeable about our operation and the nature or our rides. For this reason, guests with medical problems or special needs, upon entering the fair should be directed to the Wade Shows, Inc. Midway Office or Guest Relations where they may obtain a list of rides they can safely experience.
  
  Amusement devices have various safety systems designed to accommodate an average person. These safety systems may place restrictions on the abilities of some individuals to safely experience the ride. Extremely large or small individuals, people with casts, braces, or various other special needs may not be safely accommodated by all of these systems.
  
  Our evaluation of each ride was made using our knowledge of the ride in both normal and emergency operating condition. Using industry experience, knowledge of ride designs, manufacturer's recommendations and the American Society for Testing and Materials (A.S.T.M.) Standards on Amusement Rides and Devices, this policy was implemented to maximize what each guest can participate in safely. We restrict participation only if we feel safety may be compromised.
  
  It remains the responsibility of Wade Shows, Inc. to deny entry to an amusement device to any person if, in the opinion of the owner/operator, the entry may cause above normal exposure to risk of discomfort or injury to the person who desires to enter, or, if in the opinion of the owner/operator, the entry may jeopardize the safety of other patrons or employees.
