Waiver and Release

If the student is under the age of 18, the student's parent should read and agree to the following:  I am applying for my child to participate in the Team Shalva program and the Jerusalem marathon.  I represent and warrant that I am the parent or legal guardian of the child and, as such, consent to my child's participation in the Team Shalva program and the Jerusalem marathon and I agree that the terms hereof apply equally to my child and me and any claims I or my child may have in connection therewith. I also waive any derivative claims that relate to or arise out of my child's participation in the Team Shalva program and the Jerusalem marathon.  All references to "I" or "me" or similar words herein apply to me and to my child.
                 
I wish to participate in the Team Shalva group that will be running in the 2019 Jerusalem Marathon in order to raise awareness and critically needed funds that support the non-profit work of Shalva - The Association for Mentally & Physically Challenged Children in Israel ("Shalva"). I understand that while training for and participating in this event, I will be traversing public streets and thoroughfares where potential hazards exist. I confirm that I am aware of and appreciate the risks that may result. I am also aware that accidents may occur during this event or during the training for this event which could result in serious injury or death. I am voluntarily participating in this event and in the training for this event with knowledge of the dangers involved and I agree to accept all risks of injury or death.

I have accepted the responsibility to raise the minimum fundraising requirement for the event I have selected in order to participate with the Team Shalva group. By December 5th 2018, I will be asked to recommit to the program and at that time I will be required to secure my spot on the team with a personal credit card.  My group flight must be booked by December 21st, 2018, to avoid possible additional charges.

Once I have recommitted, I will be responsible to provide all funds collected, whether checks or by credit card, on or before the fundraising deadline of February 5th, 2019, and I authorize Shalva to charge the credit card submitted during my recommitment for any balance that remains due in order to meet the required fundraising minimum established for this event. If my credit card is so charged, I understand that I have until May 1st, 2019, to provide additional donations and to receive a refund.

Once I recommit I am aware that if for any reason I am not able to participate in the event, I will still honor my obligation to raise the fundraising minimum established for the event.

Furthermore, I, for myself and anyone entitled to act on my behalf, agree to waive my rights and to discharge all the Releasees from all claims, losses, or liabilities for death, bodily injury or property damage that I may have, or which may hereafter accrue to me, as a result of my participation in this event, even though that liability may arise from negligence or carelessness on the part of the Releasees, from dangerous or defective property or equipment owned, maintained or controlled by them or because of the possible liability without fault.

I agree to attend all the Team Shalva programs and abide by the Team Shalva Code of Conduct during my stay with Team Shalva but that Team Shalva bears no responsibility for any violation by me of the Team Shalva Code of Conduct or the direct or indirect consequences thereof.
