INDIVIDUAL AGREEMENT AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RISKS

TO: FOURSQUARE GOSPEL CHURCH OF CANADA (The “Church”)

AND: _Crossroads Community Church_______ (the "Operator")

RE: Use of CHILLIWACK LAKE CAMP (the "Church Property")

In consideration of the Church permitting the Operator to make use of the Church Property and being permitted by the Operator to participate in its activities on the Church Property:

I recognize that I will be involved in indoor and outdoor activities at and near the Church Property. Activities involved in this trip may include, but are not limited to camping, hiking, orienteering, swimming, rock or wall climbing, water sports, games and sports, and team building initiatives.

I acknowledge, understand, warrant and represent that:

(a) Outdoor activities present a wide variety of risks, hazards, and conditions (the “Risks”) to the Participant with not all of them easily foreseeable, which could result in loss, damage, expense, or injury, including death. These conditions may include, but are not limited to variable weather conditions including heat, cold, and wetness, steep or uneven terrain, evacuation difficulties, darkness, animal and plant life, rock or snow slides and use of equipment, including various types of safety gear;

(b) The Risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activities that will be undertaken on the Church Property;

(c) Church Property is run as a not for profit Camp in a wilderness and remote location. It is 40 kilometres from the nearest pay phone or cell service and 57 kilometres from the nearest hospital;

(d) There will be no representative of the Church on site during the Operator’s use of the Church Property;

(e) All administration, improvements and Camp maintenance is done by volunteers as time permits and the Church makes no warranty or representation as to the condition of the Church Property, whatsoever, or that the Church Property is reasonably safe or that the condition of the Church Property is such that the Risks can be mitigated or lessened or eliminated;

(f) The Participant will uphold the standards of behaviour expected of them by the Church and the Operator.

(g) The Participant waives any and all demands, claims, proceedings, causes of action, judgments and expenses, and any other loss or damage against the Church or any of its directors, officers, trustees, employees, members and volunteers, arising from or connected with its use of the Church Property, howsoever caused;

(h) The Participant waives any and all demands, claims, proceedings, causes of action, judgments and expenses, and any other loss or damage against the Church or any of its directors, officers, trustees, employees, members and volunteers, arising from or connected with any injury or damage to the person or property (including death) occasioned in any way during the time that the Participant is on the Church Property, including those resulting from the negligence or any other breach of duty owed by the Church of its directors, officers, trustees, employees, members and volunteers;

(i) The Participant shall indemnify and hold harmless the Church and its directors, officers, trustees, employees, members and volunteers from and against every demand, claim, proceeding, cause of action, judgment and expense, and any other loss or damage, arising from any injury or damage to his or her person or property of the Operator, including but not limited to any bodily injury to the Participant (including death) occasioned in any way during the time that the Participant is on the Church Property or otherwise;
