AGREE AND WARRANT that I will examine and inspect each Activity in which I take part as a member of LARC and that, if I observe any condition which I consider to be unacceptably hazardous or dangerous, I will notify the proper authority in charge of the Activity and will refuse to take part in the Activity until the condition has been corrected to my satisfaction.

HEREBY RELEASE, discharge, and covenant not to sue LARC, its officers, directors, members, volunteers, employees, or agents (hereinafter “Releasees”) from all liability, claims, demands, losses or damages caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence or other alleged wrongful act or omission on the part of the Releasees, including, BUT NOT LIMITED TO negligence in the operation, supervision, or maintenance of equipment and premises, and equipment failure, whether on the water or off.
