I further acknowledge that Organization has put in place common measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19, but that Organization cannot guarantee that I will not become infected with COVID-19, its variants, or any other infectious disease.

In the event of a Force Majeure Event, Organization will endeavor to inform participants as quickly as possible. Neither Organization nor Organization Parties shall be liable for any inconvenience, expenses, costs, injuries, losses, or damages suffered by participants in connection with such Force Majeure Event, and that I have no expectation of or right to a refund for cancellation or postponement of the Activity, nor personal costs associated with participating in said Activity.
Without limiting the foregoing, Organization reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to postpone or cancel the Activity due to any formal or informal orders or recommendations issued to Organization by the CDC, public health or any other governmental official with respect to any plagues, epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks of infectious disease or any other public health crisis, including COVID-19 (each, a “Public Health Crisis Event”). In the event of a Public Health Crisis Event, Organization will endeavor to inform participants as quickly as possible. Where the Activity has to be postponed or cancelled due to a Public Health Crisis Event, the Organization Parties shall not be liable for any inconvenience, expenses, costs, injuries, losses, or damages suffered by participants in connection with such Public Health Crisis Event.
