In signing the event waiver form, I acknowledge that there are risks and hazards associated with volunteering with the Sterling Foundation (Foundation), and I agree to assume all such risks and the possibility of hazards to me, my child (children), supervised minors in my group, and all real or personal property, and do not hold the Foundation, property owners, Site Captain, Sterling Foundation, or associated organizing group responsible. I understand that participation in Sterling Foundation activities is entirely voluntary. I understand that Foundation events involve physical activity, including bending, lifting, and digging. I know and understand the risks and dangers involved in the above named activities and I know and understand that unanticipated dangers may arise.
