  6. ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY FOR COMMUNICABLE DISEASES INCLUDING CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19
    ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY FOR COMMUNICABLE DISEASES INCLUDING CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19 The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people. Participation in sports or other athletic programs may not allow for proper social distancing measures and practices. Canton Township cannot and does not guarantee that you will not become infected with COVID-19. In consideration of being allowed to participate in sports league, athletic program and related events and activities on Canton Township owned property, the undersigned acknowledges, appreciates, and agrees that: 1. By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that I may be exposed to, or infected by COVID-19 by attending and/or participating in sporting leagues or related activities and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but not limited to, employees, volunteers, and program participants and their families. 2. I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any injury to myself including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death, illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I may experience or incur in connection with my participation. 3. On my behalf, I hereby release and hold harmless, covenant not to sue, discharge, and agree to indemnify Canton Township, its elected and appointed officials, employees, agents, and representatives, from any claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating thereto WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ILLNESS, DISABILITY, DEATH, including but not limited to those related to COVID-19, or loss or damage to person or property, WHETHER ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE TOWNSHIP OR OTHERWISE, to the fullest extent permitted by law. 4. I willingly agree to comply with customary and stated protocols to protect against infectious diseases, including COVID-19. If, however, I observe any unusual or significant hazard during my presence or participation, I will remove myself from participation and bring such to the attention of the nearest official immediately. I HAVE READ THIS RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK AGREEMENT, FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS, UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE GIVEN UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS BY SIGNING IT, AND SIGN IF FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY WITHOUT ANY INDUCEMENT.
