I wish to participate in the Golden Gate Bird Alliance (Golden Gate Bird Alliance) program for which I am registering (the “Program”), which includes outdoor field trip experiences. I understand that there are possible dangers associated with the Program, including but not limited to, contact with allergenic plants, stinging insects, and wildlife such as venomous snakes, as well as possible personal injury for participating in the Program and transporting to field trip sites. I understand that my participation in the Program may involve sustained physical activity.
I am in good health and I am aware of no physical problem or condition that will limit or interfere with my ability to participate in the Program. If a personal injury occurs during participation in the Program, I hereby authorize Golden Gate Bird Alliance, its employees, or adult volunteers, to seek and consent to emergency medical attention for me and I further agree to be liable for and to pay all costs incurred in connection with such medical attention.
Communicable Diseases
An inherent risk of exposure to communicable diseases, including without limitation COVID-19, exists in any public place where people are present. Such contagious diseases could lead to severe illness and death and transmission and severity depend on a significant number of variables that are outside of the control of Golden Gate Bird Alliance, including without limitation, age of the participant and underlying medical conditions. By participating in the Program, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to such communicable diseases.
I agree that I am participating in the Program at my own risk, and acknowledge that Golden Gate Bird Alliance has made no warranty or representation, expressed or implied, regarding the safety of conducting the Program.
