On my behalf and on behalf of my spouse, my children, my parents, my heirs, assigns, guests, personal representatives and estate (hereinafter collectively referred to as “my family”), I HEREBY WAIVE AND RELEASE, indemnify, hold harmless and forever discharge Fitzgerald Acres Alpaca Ranch, located at 15792 N. Memorial Dr., Collinsvillle, OK 74021, and its agents, owner, employees, volunteers, vendors, participants, officers, directors, affiliates, successors, and assigns, of and from any and all claims, demands, debts, contracts, expenses, causes of action, lawsuits, damages and liabilities, of every kind and nature, whether known or unknown, in law or equity, that “my family” or I have ever had or may have, that arises from or is in any way related to “my family’s” participation, on-site or off-site, in any events or activities conducted by, on the premises of, or for the benefit of Fitzgerald Acres Alpaca Ranch, hereinafter collectively known as “FAAR”.

I understand that the activities that “my family” and I will participate in and will see are inherently dangerous and may cause serious emotional injury or serious grievous injuries, including bodily injury, damage to personal property and/or death. I know that “my family” and I will be in direct contact with animals that include, but are not limited to: alpacas, llamas, goats, rabbits, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats, etc. I understand that, as with most animals, they may react in an unpredictable way to sounds, sudden movements, people, or other animals that could result in injuries to “my family” and me. On behalf of “my family” and I, I waive all claims for damages, injuries and death sustained to me and “my family”, and that “my family” and I may have against FAAR.

By this waiver “my family” and I assume any risk and responsibilities, waive any claims of personal injury, death or damage to personal property, by our participation in the following activities, including but not limited to, visiting FAAR, observing or interacting with the animals, using the facility and its equipment in any manner, form or fashion, and practicing and/or engaging in other related activities on-site or off-site. This includes the initiating of prohibited contact with the animals on and off the premises and disobeying any FAAR regulations both posted and unposted. It is a condition of entry that visitors do not venture into FAAR’s animal enclosures and/or restricted areas unless accompanied by an FAAR employee or volunteer.

This WAIVER AND RELEASE contains the entire agreement between parties, and supersedes any prior written or oral agreements between said parties, concerning the subject matter of this WAIVER AND RELEASE. The provisions of the WAIVER AND RELEASE may be waived, altered, amended or repealed, in whole or in part, only upon the prior written consent of all parties.
