"Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk, and Indemnity Agreement"
Waiver: In consideration of being permitted to reserve (facility) on the above listed date(s) and time(s) , I, for myself, my heirs,
personal representatives or assigns, do hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue The City of Murrieta, its officers,
employees, and agents from liability from any/all claims including the negligence of the City of Murrieta, its officers, employees
and agents, resulting in personal injury, accidents or illnesses (including death), and property loss arising from, but not limited to,
participation in this event.
Assumption of Risks: Participation in this event carries with it certain inherent risks that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care
taken to avoid injuries. The specific risks vary from one activity to another, but the risks range from 1) minor injuries such as
scratches, bruises, and sprains 2) major injuries such as eye injury or loss of sight, joint or back injuries, heart attacks and concussions
to 3) catastrophic injuries including paralysis and death.
I have read the previous paragraphs and I know, understand, and appreciate these and other risks that are inherent in this
event and I hereby assert that my participation is voluntary and that I knowingly assume all such risks.
Indemnification and Hold Harmless: I also agree to INDEMNIFY and HOLD the City of Murrieta HARMLESS from any and all
claims, actions, suits, procedures, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, including attorney's fees brought as a result of my
involvement in this activity and to reimburse them for any such expenses incurred. I hereby acknowledge that as a voluntary
participant that I am not an employee of the City of Murrieta and that I am not covered under the City's workers' compensation plan. I
intend to perform voluntary services for or in the City of Murrieta without compensation. As a condition of performing the above
referenced volunteer activities, I hereby knowingly and unequivocally waive, release and discharge any and all rights that I, my heirs,
assigns, agents or other representatives may have or which hereafter may accrue to me, to file any claim, lawsuit and/or any other
cause of action against the City of Murrieta, its employees, officers, agencies, other volunteers and officials as a result of performing
said volunteer services. In granting this full and complete release and waiver of liability on the part of the City of Murrieta, I
specifically waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states:
A general release does not extend to claims, which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of
executing the release, which if known by him, must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.
I expressly desire to release the City of Murrieta, its employees, officers, other volunteers, property owner, and officials from any
financial responsibility to me for any personal injury and/or property damage I may incur as a result of my voluntary participation,
even when it results from the negligence, both active and passive, of the City of Murrieta and/or its employees. I understand that
accidents and injuries can arise out of my volunteer activities; knowing the risk, nevertheless, I hereby agree to assume those risks and
to release and to hold harmless the City of Murrieta, its employees, officers, agencies, other volunteers and officials, who (through
negligence or carelessness) might otherwise be liable to me (or my heirs, assigns, agents or other representatives) for damages. No
promise, inducement, or agreement has been made to me to induce me to release the City of Murrieta from liability for any personal
injury and/or property damage incurred by me as a result of my voluntary participation, nor has any promise, inducement, or
agreement been made to me in return for the express waiver of rights referred to above.
Initials: _______
Severability: The undersigned further expressly agrees that the foregoing waiver and assumption of risks agreement is intended to be
as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, it is agreed
that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.
Acknowledgement of Understanding: I have read this waiver of liability, assumption of risk, and indemnity agreement, fully
understand its terms, and understand that I am giving up substantial rights, including my right to sue. I acknowledge that I am
signing the agreement freely and voluntarily, and intend by my signature to be a complete and unconditional release of all
liability to the greatest extent allowed by law.
