In consideration of the services of Comunidad Connect, their agents, owners, officers, volunteers, participants, employees, and all other persons or entities acting in any capacity on their behalf (hereinafter collectively referred to as "CC"), I hereby agree to release, indemnify, and discharge CC, on behalf of myself, my children, my parents, my heirs, assigns, personal representative and estate as follows:

CC has, at my request, agreed to provide certain services (described further below) to me and, if applicable, my minor children (the “Participating Children”), provided that I agree to a fair and reasonable allocation of the associated risks. The terms of this agreement are CC’s proposed allocation of risk. I understand that if I wish to utilize CC’s services but have objections or complaints about this agreement, I or my attorney may contact CC or its attorney at info@comunidadconnect.org to negotiate a mutually satisfactory allocation of the risks involved in such services and the costs associated with providing the services and associated liability insurance, and further understand that CC will negotiate such changes with me in good faith.

I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activities. While CC guides hold the safety of participants as their first priority, they are not infallible. They might be unaware of a participants’ fitness or abilities. They might misjudge the weather, the elements, or the terrain. They may give inadequate warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction. I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks existing in the activities. My participation in the activities is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks.

I agree that CC shall have no liability for these travel risks and shall not be liable for the adequacy of medical care and supplies that may be provided.

SHALL NOT APPLY TO CLAIMS FINALLY ADJUDICATED TO HAVE ARISEN FROM THE WILLFUL OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OF CC

5. ATTORNEY’S FEES. SHOULD CC OR ANYONE ACTING ON THEIR BEHALF, BE REQUIRED TO INCUR ATTORNEY'S FEES AND COSTS TO ENFORCE THIS AGREEMENT, I AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD THEM HARMLESS FOR ALL SUCH FEES AND COSTS.
