As used herein, the term "Equipment" shall include equine animal. b) TO ASSUME ALL RISKS INHERENT IN PARTICIPATING IN THE ACTIVITIES AND USING THE EQUIPMENT; and c) TO RELEASE the Host, its owners, affiliates, employees, and/or agents, from al liability for any loss, damage, injury, or expense forming the basis for a claim and/or cause of action that the Participant [or his/her parent(s) or natural guardian(s)] may suffer, arising out of the inherent risks of participation in the Activities and/or use of the Equipment. Personal Responsibility The Participant and his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) certify that Participant has no physical or mental condition that precludes him/her from participating in the Activities and that he/she is not participating against medical advice. If helmets are recommended to use while participating in the Activities, and Participant chooses not to wear a helmet, he/she does so at his/her own risk and accepts full responsibility for any injury that results. The Participant and his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) understand that Participant's participation in the Activities is voluntary and further understand that they have the opportunity to inspect the Host's Equipment and facilities before any participation. The Participant and his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) understand that Participant is obligated to follow the rules of the Activities and that he/she can minimize his/her risk of injury by doing so and through the exercise of common sense and by being aware of his/her surroundings. If, while participating in the Activities, the Participant or his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) observe any unusual hazard or condition, which they believe jeopardizes Participant's personal safety or that of others, Participant and/or his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) will remove Participant from participation in the Activities and immediately bring said hazard or condition to the attention of the Host. I, (parent/natural guardian), hereby agree that I will explain to my child that the risk of injury while participating in the Activities and using the Equipment can be reduced by following the rules and through the use of common sense and good judgment.
