I, the parent or legal guardian of the above named child, a minor, for myself and on behalf of the child participating in the classes, our heirs, assigns and next of kin, acknowledge that participation in sailing necessarily involves activities involving water and boats with risk of drowning and severe, permanent physical injury including bruises, scrapes, strained, sprained or torn muscles, tendons or ligaments, broken bones, dislocation of joints, concussion, brain damage, nerve and spinal cord injury, paralysis, and death. For myself and on behalf of the participating child, our heirs, assigns and next of kin, we willingly and voluntarily accept and assume all such risk.

For myself and on behalf of the child, I further acknowledge that the Key West Community Sailing Center (KWCSC) is primarily administered by volunteers rather than paid professionals.

In consideration of accepting the registration and permitting the voluntary participation of the above named participant in its programs, for myself and on behalf of the child, our heirs, assigns and next of kin, I hereby release, discharge and agree to hold harmless KWCSC, its employees, volunteers, officials, sponsors, and other representatives from any and all claims, demands, costs, expenses and compensation arising out of or in any way relating to any physical injury or other damage that may result to said participant while participating in any KWCSC sponsored event or activity, including any physical or other injury caused by the negligence of any such person while performing his/her duties at any time.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENT: I acknowledge that medical insurance is the responsibility of the parent or guardian of the child named above. For both internal and external use, I acknowledge that the KWCSC may compile and use addresses and sailing photographs of the named individual. I consent to such uses and hereby waive all rights to compensation.

I HAVE READ THE ABOVE EMERGENCY AUTHORIZATION, DISCLAIMER, ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND WAIVER, AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENT AGREEMENTS, FULLY UNDERSTAND THE TERMS OF EACH, UNDERSTAND THAT I AND THE CHILD HAVE GIVEN UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS BY MY SIGNING THIS FORM AND AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, AND I SIGN THIS FORM AND AGREE TO THOSE TERMS FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY AND WITH NO INDUCEMENT FOR MYSELF OR THE CHILD.
