I understand that while at the FACE IT Lodge, located at 84211 Dobosenski Road, Sturgeon Lake, MN 55783 (“The Lodge”) I will be participating in activities which involve inherent risks of injury or death (“Activities”).

As consideration for my right to participate in the Activities, I hereby agree to follow reasonable safety precautions, including but not limited to remaining in close enough contact with another person to be reasonably able to call for help if needed, using reasonable protective gear, ensuring I have been recently evaluated by a medical professional, reasonably ensuring I do not have medical limitations that should limit my participation in any Activities.

I hereby, for myself, my heirs, my executor, administrators, assigns, or personal representatives (“Myself and Agents”), knowingly and voluntarily enter into this waiver and release of liability and hereby waive and any all rights, claims or causes of action of any kind whatsoever arising out of my participation in the Activities, and do hereby release and forever discharge FACE IT Foundation, with headquarters location at 3550 Lexington Avenue North, Suite 106, Shoreview, MN 55126, and The Lodge, its affiliates, managers, members, agents, attorneys, staff, directors, owners, volunteers, heirs, representatives, predecessors, successors and assigns (“FACE IT”), shall not be responsible for any direct or indirect physical or psychological injury, including but not limited to illness, paralysis, death, damages, economical or emotional loss or support, that I may suffer as a result of my participation in the Activities, including traveling to and from an event related to Activities.

I UNDERSTAND THAT THESE INJURIES OR COUTOMES MAY ARISE FROM MY OWN OR OTHERS’ NEGLIGENCE, CONDITIONS RELATED TO TRAVEL, OR THE CONDITIONS RELATED TO THE ACTIVITIES AND LOCATION. NONETHELESS, I ASSUME ALL RELATED RISKS, BOTH KNOWN AND UNKNOWN TO ME, OF MY PARTICIPATION IN THESE ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING TRAVCEL TO, FROM AND DURING THE ACTIVITIES.

I agree to indemnify (reimburse) and hold harmless FACE IT against all claims, suits or actions of any kind whatsoever for liability, damages, compensation or otherwise brought by Myself and Agents, including attorneys’ fees and any related costs. I acknowledge that FACE IT is not responsible for errors, omissions, acts or failures to act of any party or entity conducting Activities on behalf of FACE IT.

I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ACTIVITIES MAY INVOLVE RISKS THAT MAY CARRY WITH IT POTENTIAL FOR DEATH, SERIOUS INJURY AND PROPERTY LOSS. I FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THIS WAIVER AND RELEASE AND I FULL UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS A RELEASE OF LIABILITY. I EXPRESSLY AGREE TO RELEASE AND DISCHARGE FACE IT FROM ALL CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF ACTION AND I AGREE TO VOLUNTARILY GIVE UP OR WAIVE ANY RIGHT THAT I MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING A LEGAL ACTION AGAINST FACE IT FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

To the extent that statute or case law does not prohibit releases for negligence, this release shall also release FACE it for acts of negligence for Activities. In the event I should require medical care or treatment while at The Lodge or resulting from participating in Activities, I agree to be financially responsible for any costs incurred as a result of such treatment. I am aware and understand that I should carry my own health care insurance. In the even that any damage to equipment or facilities occurs resulting from my or my family’s willful actions, neglect or recklessness, I acknowledge and agree to be held liable for any and all costs associated with any actions of neglect or recklessness.
