East Canyon State Park Waiver

PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT, RELEASE, AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RISK

In consideration for permission to rent a motorized or non-motorized vessel from the State of Utah Division of Parks and Recreation (hereinafter “Division”) for use at East Canyon State Park, I do hereby agree to this waiver and release.

I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Division, the State of Utah, its agencies, departments, officers, employees, agents, and all sponsors, officials, and staff or volunteers from any and all liability, claims, demands, breach of warranty, negligence, actions or causes of actions, whatsoever for any loss, claim, damage, injury, illness, attorney’s fees or harm of any kind or nature to me arising out of my participation in these activities and my use of Division’s equipment at East Canyon State Park. This release extends to any claim made by my family, estate, heirs or assigns arising from or in any way connected with these activities. I further agree to pay any and all claims brought by any third party as a result of the operation and/or use of the rented equipment during the rental period.

I state that I am free from any known medical or physical conditions that could prevent me from safely operating or being a passenger in any of the rented equipment, or else I am willing to assume, and bear the costs of, all risks that may be created, directly or indirectly, by any such condition. I certify that I agree to be personally responsible for the costs of any injury or damage I may cause or suffer while participating in these activities at East Canyon State Park. I agree to release Division, the State of Utah, its agencies, departments, officers, employees, agents, and all sponsors, officials, and staff or volunteers from the cost of any medical care I receive as a result of participation in these activities at East Canyon State Park.

I acknowledge that operating any motorized or non-motorized vessel on bodies of water carries a risk of personal injury or property damage and requires a degree of physical activity. I also acknowledge that there are natural and other unforeseen hazards, environmental conditions, disease and other risks that, in combination with my actions or the actions of others, can cause injury to me or damage to my property. I do hereby agree to assume all risks that may be associated with or may result from my participation in these activities, including, but not limited to, operating the vessel(s) on the water, entering or exiting the vessel(s), and launching the vessel(s). I further agree to be held responsible for the safe and proper operation of Division’s equipment and for the safety and welfare of other operators and persons using the rented equipment assigned to me. If there are any minors participating in the rented equipment, I will provide all necessary supervision to maintain the safety of each minor and take all responsibility to protect each minor from injury.

By signing this document, I acknowledge that if anyone is hurt or property is damaged during my participating in this activity, I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against Division on the basis of any claim from which I have released them herein.

I have had sufficient opportunity to read this entire document. I have read and understood it, and I agree to be bound by its terms.
