I wish to participate in Wounded Warriors Weekend’s Run to Remember, honouring and supporting wounded veterans and first responders, which will take place between July 7 and 23, 2016, over the attached routes.

 

I agree to abide by the rules, regulations, and instructions of the event, as well as all applicable municipal and provincial laws and regulations. I understand that participating in such an event, using public streets, facilities, and highways, as well as participation in services or associated events made available to participants during the event, are potentially hazardous activities and can result in serious injury or death. I am aware of and expressly assume all risks associated with participating in this event, including, without limitation, falls, contact with other participants and objects, effects of weather, traffic, and the conditions of the routes, streets, and highways used by the event. I assert that my participation in this event is voluntary.

 

In consideration for being allowed to participate in this event, I (for myself and any minors accompanying me, and for anyone entitled to act on my behalf) hereby waive and release from any and all claims for injuries and damages I may have arising out of the event or my participation in it against Wounded Warriors Weekend Foundation Inc., WWW’s Run to Remember, and all other supportive parties of the event including sponsors, participating communities, organizations, clubs, friends of the event, other participants, third-parties, government or public entities (including, without limitation, the Department of Highways and all cities and towns along the route) and their respective affiliates, successors, officers, directors, employees, volunteers, agents, and representatives.

 

I intend by this Waiver and Release to release, in advance, and to waive my rights and to discharge all of the persons and entities mentioned above, from all claims for damages to my own property, personal injury or death, or which may hereafter accrue to me, as a result of my participation in this event, even though that liability may arise from negligence, carelessness, or recklessness (whether simple or gross) on the part of the persons or entities being released, from dangerous or defective property or equipment owned, maintained or controlled by them or because of their possible liability without fault. I understand and agree that this Waiver and Release is binding on my heirs, assigns, and legal representatives.

 

I agree not to participate unless I am medically able and properly prepared. I acknowledge that I alone am solely responsible for my personal health and safety, and the personal property I bring with me. I agree to abide by any decision of an event official concerning my ability to safely participate. I consent to receive medical treatment which may be advisable in the event of illness or injuries suffered by me during this event, and I agree to pay for the costs of any such medical treatment.

I understand that all donations received during WWW’s Run to Remember belong to Wounded Warriors Weekend Foundation Inc.

 

I understand WWW’s Run to Remember, and all its related events, are public events which may be recorded and so I give permission to Event Organizers to use or authorize others to use any photographs, motion pictures, or any other record of my participation in this event or related activities without remuneration.

 

THIS WAIVER AND RELEASE SHALL BE INTERPRETED AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES DETERMINED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE PROVINCE OF SASKATCHEWAN. THE SASKATCHEWAN COURTS SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION FOR ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER, OR PERTAINING TO, THIS WAIVER AND RELEASE.
