Document Description
This is a release of liability (commonly referred to as a liability waiver or an exculpatory agreement) that is signed by a guest/attendee in connection with their participation in a potentially dangerous activity organized by a DMC. This liability waiver is intended to protect the DMC against liability for claims of illness, injury, or death resulting from the guest's/attendee's participation. It contains a covenant not to sue, an acknowledgment of assumption of risk, and an acknowledgment of voluntary participation.
