VOLUNTEER LIABILITY RELEASE FORM

I acknowledge that I am a volunteer or participant of the Riversport Foundation (“Operator”) and have agreed to take part in Operator’s rowing or paddle sport activities or other special events in or near the Boathouse District in Oklahoma City (“Facility”). I also acknowledge that I am not employed or contracted by Operator, The City of Oklahoma City (“City”), or the Oklahoma City Riverfront Redevelopment Authority (“OCRRA”) to perform work or other tasks at the Facility. I further acknowledge that I am at least eighteen (18) years of age and have no impairments that prevent me from performing such work or tasks. 

I understand that this activity may involve strenuous physical exertion and carries inherent risks, including, but not limited to, property damage, injury, or death. I also understand that I can avoid these inherent risks by not volunteering or participating.  I further understand that factors beyond my control, including negligence, may affect my safety. In signing this Liability Release Form (“Release”), I affirm that neither Operator, the City, nor OCRRA can guarantee my safety and that I participate willingly. If injured, I will rely solely on my own insurance or resources to cover any medical bills or other expenses or losses. I understand that no workers’ compensation or third-party insurance will be available to me.

I hereby release Operator, the City, OCRRA, and their agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns, from all liability related, in any way, to my volunteer activities or participation at the Facility.
