Personal Responsibility Covenants

Participant certifies that Participant has no physical, medical or any other pre-existing conditions or limitations that precludes Participant from participating in the Activities.

The Participant certify that Participant is not participating against medical advice and is not under the influence of any controlled substances, prescription medication or other substances that would endanger Participant or others.

The Participant understands that participation in the Activities is voluntary and further understand that they have the opportunity to inspect the Equipment and facilities before any participation.

The Participant understands that Participant is obligated to follow the rules and safety instructions of the Activities. 

Participant understands that the minimum age for participation in the Activities is 4 years old. There also are certain posted weight and height restrictions for the Activities that Participant will follow. For the entire Activities course, the maximum weight is 250 pounds. There is no minimum weight on the Activities course, but the minimum height for the Activities is 60 inches solo or 48 inches if Participant is accompanied by an otherwise qualified participant who is 60 inches or taller. Participant can minimize Participant’s risk of injury by following the restrictions and warnings, being aware of the surroundings, and using common sense. Participant further understands that the Activities are not a guided experience and Participant will not be supervised by Zoo personnel throughout the Activities. 

If, while participating in the Activities, the Participant observes any unusual hazard or condition, which they believe jeopardizes Participant’s personal safety or that of others, Participant will cease participation in the Activities and immediately bring said hazard or condition to the attention of the Zoo.

This Agreement is governed by Ohio law and any legal action shall be brought and decided exclusively by the courts situated in Hamilton County, Ohio. To the extent that any portion of this Agreement is deemed to be invalid under Ohio law, the remaining portions of the Agreement shall remain binding and available for use by the Zoo in any proceedings.

I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS AGREEMENT. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE ZOO RELEASEES ARE RELYING ON THESE STATEMENTS, AND I AM AWARE THAT BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT I MAY BE WAIVING CERTAIN LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SUE.
