Serious injury may result from your participation in this activity. Camp Crucis does not guarantee your safety. Camp Crucis is a helmet mandatory facility.

I, the following listed individual hereinafter known as the “volunteer”, and the parents or legal guardians thereof if a minor, do hereby voluntarily request and agree to participate in equine activities offered by Camp Crucis, and that this volunteer will be working with horses owned or leased by Camp Crucis. Name of volunteer ________________________________________ age (if under 21) ______.

This agreement shall be legally binding upon me, the volunteer, and or the parents or legal guardians thereof if a minor, my heirs, estate, assigns, including all minor children and personal representatives. The term “stable” shall refer to Camp Crucis. The term “horse” herein shall refer to all equine species. The term “Horseback Riding” shall refer to riding or otherwise handling of horses whether from the ground or mounted. The terms “I”, “me”, “my”, shall herein refer to the above registered rider and the parents or legal guardians thereof if a minor.
I understand that this stable chooses its horses for their calm disposition and sound basic training and that this stable follows a rigid risk reduction program. Yet no horse is a completely safe horse. Horseback riding is classified as “rugged adventure recreational sports activity”, and there are numerous obvious and non-obvious inherent risks always present in such activities despite all safety precautions. I understand that this activity could involve crossing a public road, motorized and non-motorized vehicles, wild and domestic animals, slick or rocky footing conditions and many others while riding a horse.
I agree that in consideration of this stable allowing my participation in this activity, under the terms set forth herein, I, the rider, for myself and on behalf of my child an/or legal ward, heirs discharge this stable, its owners, agents, employee, officer, directors, representatives, assigns, members, owners of premises, owners of trails, affiliated organizations, and insures, and others demands, causes of action, and legal liability, whether the same be known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated, due to this stable and/or its associates ordinary negligence: and I do further agree that except in the event of this stables gross negligence and willful and wanton misconduct, I shall not bring any claims demands, legal actions and causes of action against this stable and its associates as stated above in this clause, for any economic and non-economic losses due to bodily injury, death, property damage, sustained by me and/or my minor child or legal ward in relation to the premises and operations of this stable, to include while riding, handling or otherwise being near horses owned by or in the care, custody and control of this stable, whether on or off the premises of this stable.

NOTE: Under Texas Code (chapter 87, civil practice and remedies code) An Equine professional is not liable for any injury to or death of a participant in Equine activities resulting from the inherent risks of Equine activities.

I/we the undersigned, have read and do understand the foregoing agreement, warnings, release
and assumption of risk.
