WAIVER, RELEASE OF LIABILITY, AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK

INTRODUCTION

This Waiver and Release of Liability, and Assumption of Risks (the “Waiver”) contains information about your participation in activities and may affect your legal rights in the event of an injury or other loss. This Waiver pertains to both “live” [Half Moon Bouldering is located at Piper Village in Greenwood, 124 N 85th Street, Seattle, WA (the “Premises”)] and “virtual classes” conducted by Half Moon Bouldering (“HMB”). Please read it carefully. All Participants in all HMB activities (herein, a “Participant”) must provide the information called for above, and all Participants 14 years of age and older must sign below. If the Participant is a minor (under the age of 18) at least one parent or a court-appointed legal guardian of the minor (parent or guardian being referred to hereinafter as, “Parent”) must also sign, for themselves and on behalf of their minor child.

In consideration of the services provided at the facility known as Half Moon Bouldering owned and operated by Half Moon Bouldering LLC., I, Participant, and if applicable, Parent of a minor Participant, agree as follows:

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RISKS

Although HMB have taken reasonable steps to provide me with appropriate equipment and skilled instructors, HMB has informed me that the activities at HMB involve serious potential risks and I (and my Parent(s), if I am a minor) acknowledge that participating in activities at HMB involves these risks. These activities vary, are strenuous and may include bouldering and climbing on HMB’s artificial walls, yoga, the use of fitness machines, fitness programs, transportation to and from activities and other forms of activities, such as online yoga and training classes (together, “Activities”). The risks inherent in each Activity cannot be eliminated without destroying the unique character of the Activity. The following describe some, but not all of the risks:

Risks involved in Activities in and about the Premises. Participants and others may fall or injure themselves as they participate and move about the Facilities, on our rock walls, and other Premises on and in which the Activities are conducted, including in connection with online yoga and training classes and travel to and from outdoor sites.

Risks in decision making. Participants and staff must make judgments and decisions which are, by their nature, imprecise and subject to error, and include, among others, issues of a Participant’s fitness and abilities, weather and other environmental conditions. Participants may be unsupervised by staff.

Equipment failure or misuse. Equipment used in the Activities may include fitness and exercise machinery, artificial climbing holds, climbing shoes, climbing hardware, and the climbing structure itself. Such equipment, which may be a Participant’s own or be rented/borrowed from HMB, may fail, break, fall, malfunction or be misused by staff or Participants.

Risks regarding conduct. Participants, staff, and third parties may fail to exercise reasonable care relating to the Activities.

These and other risks, dangers and hazards may cause Participants to suffer losses of various degrees of severity, as a result of, but not limited to: 1) falling, including to the ground or other surface; 2) becoming entangled in ropes or other equipment; 3) striking the climbing surface, anchor points, or other projections; or 4) colliding with or impacting falling rocks, other objects or people. These and other circumstances may cause fractures, sprains, broken bones, concussions, cuts or abrasions, and other injury or illness, potential exposure to communicable disease (including but not limited to COVID-19, other viruses, bacteria, and all other infectious pathogens and disease vectors), property damage or loss, mental or emotional trauma, paralysis, disability and death.

I Agree

ASSUMPTION OF RISKS

I understand that the above is only a partial list of risks and possible consequences of the Activities, including HMB Activities and environment, is not complete and that other unknown or unanticipated risks, hazards and dangers may result in injury, damage, death or other loss. I understand that the risks, hazards, and dangers described above, and others, are inherent in the Activities, including HMB’s Activities – that is, they cannot be eliminated without destroying the basic nature and attraction of the Activity.

My participation in these Activities is purely voluntary, and I choose to participate in spite of and with knowledge of the risks of participation. If I am a minor Participant, I have discussed the Activities and risks with my Parent or Guardian and wish to participate nevertheless. Therefore, I (and Parent or Guardian if the Participant is a minor) expressly assume and accept full responsibility for the risks of enrollment and participation in the Activities, including any Activities at HMB, whether or not described in this document, and for injury, damage, death or other loss suffered by me resulting from those risks.

I Agree

SPECIAL NOTICE: ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK OF INFECTIOUS DISEASE

I understand and have familiarized myself with the dangers of COVID-19 and understand that participating in Activities at this facility may subject me to exposure to and infection by COVID-19 or other infectious disease. I have read and agree to comply with all rules and recommendations of HMB facilities and applicable local, state and federal health authorities with respect to COVID-19 or other infectious disease. I acknowledge and understand that such rules may be inadequate to protect me from the risk of transmission of disease by or to others. I understand that state, federal, and local guidelines rapidly change, and that the rules and recommendations of the HMB facilities therefore may not reflect the most recent health guidance. Notwithstanding the risks associated with COVID-19 or other infectious disease, including without limitation the risk of illness or death, which I readily acknowledge, I hereby willingly choose to participate in Activities at this facility, AND I ACKNOWLEDGE AND FULLY ASSUME THE RISK OF ILLNESS OR DEATH TO MYSELF OR OTHERS RELATED TO COVID-19 OR OTHER INFECTIOUS DISEASE ARISING FROM MY PRESENCE AT HALF MOON BOULDERING AND/OR PARTICIPATION IN ACTIVITIES AT HALF MOON BOULDERING.

All Participants must comply with the COVID-19 Mitigation Measures posted in HMB facilities and on the HMB website. 2) Participant acknowledges that COVID-19 Mitigation Measures may change from time to time and assumes the obligation to stay informed about the most current updates on such measures prior to each visit to HMB facilities and prior to participating in HMB Activities.

I Agree

RELEASE AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

I, an adult Participant, or Parent or Guardian of a minor Participant (for myself and on behalf of that minor) agree to release and not to sue or assert any claim against HMB or their affiliates, or any of their owners, staff, landlord(s), members, agents, directors and officers (“Released Parties”), with respect to any and all claims, liabilities, suits or expenses (including attorney fees and costs), arising out of any injury, damage, death or other loss to me or my child in any way related to my or my child’s enrollment or participation in any Activities, including on-site and off-site Activities at HMB (which include the use of HMB’s climbing walls, other equipment and facilities, and online Activities, such as virtual yoga and training classes etc.). 

I agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless (“indemnify” meaning to protect by reimbursement or payment) HMB and the other Released Parties with respect to all claims, liabilities, suits or expenses (including attorney fees and costs) arising from an injury to me or to my child, or arising from my or my child’s conduct, related to my or my child’s enrollment or participation in the Activities, including Activities at HMB.

This Waiver includes any losses claimed to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence of HMB (but not its gross negligence or reckless misconduct) and includes claims for personal injury, property damage, wrongful death, products liability, breach of contract or otherwise.

I Agree

MISCELLANEOUS

I am capable of participating in all of the above-described Activities without causing harm to myself or others. I agree to follow all HMB’s rules and regulations. I acknowledge that HMB’s staff is and has been available to answer my questions about the nature and physical demands of these Activities and their risks, hazards and dangers. I understand that the presence of HMB’s personnel is no assurance of my safety or the lessening of any of these risks.

I Agree

I agree that this document and all other aspects of my relationship with HMB or any other Released Party are governed by the laws of the State of Washington (excepting such laws as may apply the laws of another jurisdiction).

By signing below, I certify that I have carefully read, understand, and voluntarily sign this document and acknowledge that it shall be effective and binding upon me and my heirs, executors, representatives and estate and further certify that I have no physical limitations or medical conditions that would impair my ability to fully and safely use HMB facilities.
