I,___________________________________, desiring to join my fellow paddlers in the NORTH TEXAS RIVER RUNNERS, do hereby declare that I fully understand and accept the following facts of life on the river:

¨ Canoeing, kayaking and rafting, particularly on whitewater rivers, exposes participants to various safety hazards.

¨ No one but myself is responsible for my safety when I choose to challenge my capabilities by running a particular river or a particular rapid.

¨ I expect to assist my fellow paddlers to the best of my own personal skill and ability if they appear to need such assistance, but only so long as I can do so without significant danger to myself. I further understand that this does not imply any LEGAL duty for me to do so, nor for anyone else to render such assistance to me.

Now, therefore, intending to be legally bound, I HEREBY WAIVE, FOR MYSELF AND FOR ANYONE ELSE CLAIMING THROUGH ME, MY RIGHT TO SUE THE NORTH TEXAS RIVER RUNNERS, ITS OFFICERS, TRIP COORDINATORS OR LEADERS, OR ANY OF MY FELLOW PADDLERS, FOR ANY INJURIES TO MY PERSON OR MY EQUIPMENT WHICH MAY OCCUR DURING, IN PREPARATION FOR, OR IN TRANSIT TO A NORTH TEXAS RIVER RUNNERS OUTING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION, AND TO ANY INTENTIONAL ACT INTENDED TO PROMOTE MY SAFETY OR WELL BEING.

This waiver is given in the interest of permitting the North Texas river Runners to exist and to serve the paddling community, and to enable myself and my fellow paddlers to feel free to donate their services to improve the sport and to help in training those less skilled than ourselves without fear of liability.

MY WAIVER IS GIVEN IN EXCHANGE FOR SIMILAR WAIVERS TO BE GRANTED ON MY BEHALF BY OTHER MEMBERS OF THE NORTH TEXAS RIVER RUNNERS.
