Releasors hereby acknowledge that serious accidents occasionally occur during Club Activities and that mortal or serious personal injuries and/or property damage or other loss may result from participation in such activities, including further injury or damage sustained as the result of the efforts of third parties who come to the aid of Participant and from the transmission of illness, such as from COVID-19 and other communicable diseases of contagious nature and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death.

​
