In consideration for permission to participate in the Physical Activity (“EVENT”) held on the MiraCosta Community College District (“DISTRICT”) property or associated with a prior pre-arranged off-site location with instruction conducted by district staff, the person signing below hereby stipulates and agrees:

Assumption of Risk

I represent that I am physically sound and to my knowledge I have no medical condition that will prevent me from participating in the EVENT.

Release from Liability

I agree for myself and for my heirs to fully and forever discharge and release the MiraCosta Community College District, MCC Foundation, its respective trustees, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, actions and causes of action whatsoever whether known or unknown based upon any injuries, costs, loss of service, expenses, actions and causes of action whatsoever whether known or unknown based on any injuries, costs, losses of services, expenses and any and all damages, claims whatsoever, whether caused by their negligence or for any other reason, on the account of, or in any way resulting from, personal injuries, conscious suffering, death or property damage to myself or to any other person or property, in any way connected with my preparation or participating in the EVENT. I agree that this Liability Release and Waiver Agreement shall include my participation in any and all activities sponsored by the Releasees including, but not limited to, participation in instructional sessions, or any physical activity.

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him or her, must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.

I hereby understand and agree that all rights under section 1542 of the California Civil Code are expressly waived and that this release releases all injuries, damages, or losses to the person and property, real or personal, whether known or unknown, foreseeable, unforeseeable, patent or latent, which she/he may have against another party or parties herein released.

RELEASE & DISCHARGE

As a condition of my participation in a field trip or excursion, I understand that California Education Code Section 35330(d), provides that “all persons making the field trip or excursion shall be deemed to have waived all claims against the District or the State of California for injury, accident, illness or death occurring during or by reason of a field trip or excursion. All adults taking out-of-state field trips or excursions and all parents or guardians of students taking out-of-state field trips or excursions shall sign a statement waiving such claims.” Participant agrees to release and discharge (agreeing to make no claim and not to sue) the State of California or the District (it’s Board of Trustees, officials, employees, agents) (“Released Parties”) from all claims of injury or loss which the participant or the minor participant for whom parent or legal guardian signs for, may suffer, arising in whole or in part from the Participant’s enrollment or participation in the excursion, including but not limited to any injury, accident, illness, or death or any loss or damage to personal property occurring during or by reason of the participation in said excursion.

Obey and uphold any and all rules and requirements of the program; observe the designated schedule and follow the instructions given by District supervisory personnel in all matters pertaining to the program.

I grant the District, acting by and through the personnel designated to supervise said excursion, the right to terminate my participation in the program if it is determined by them that my continued participation is detrimental to or in conflict with the purpose of the excursion, or is not in harmony with the best interests of the other participants and/or supervisory personnel. I grant the right to terminate my participation in the program if it is determined that my conduct is detrimental to the best interests of the group. Either scenario will result in my return home, at my personal expense. No refund or fees will be given.

Violation of any of the stated rules or regulations pertaining to this course will result in my immediate removal from the program.
