Liability Release Agreement
Liability Release: I acknowledge the risks and potential risks for horseback riding and activities in and around a facility where horses are kept, and farm machinery operated. However, I feel that the possible benefits to me/child/my ward are greater than the risk assumed. Intending legally to bind myself, my heirs, and assigns, executors or administrators, I hereby waive and release forever all claims for loss or damages of any kind against TROT, its Board of Directors, Instructors, Therapists, Aids, Volunteers and Employees for any and all injuries and losses that I/my child/my ward may sustain while participating in the TROT program. This release includes without limitation the risk of negligent instruction and supervision. I engage in activities at TROT voluntarily with knowledge of the risks and I assume all risks of injury, death, and property damage that may result. I agree to bear any loss myself. I acknowledge that TROT and the property owners are materially relying on this waiver and assumption of risk in allowing me/my child/my ward to participate in activities at TROT.
