READ CAREFULLY BEFORE SIGNING. BY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT, YOU WILL WAIVE LEGAL RIGHTS AND GIVE UP THE RIGHT TO SUE FOR ANY DAMAGES, HOWSOEVER CAUSED.

TO: The Junction Climbing Centre Inc., other participants at 1030 Elias St, London, ON N5W 3P6 (the “Property”), the owners and lessors of the Property, and their directors, officers, shareholders, employees, volunteers, agents, representatives, contractors, sponsoring agencies, sponsors, advertisers, successors and assigns (the “Releasees”).

In consideration of the Releasees permitting my entry onto the Property and of my being allowed to participate in any way in The Junction Climbing Centre Inc. program, rock climbing, use of facilities (including the belay equipment, ropes, harnesses, climbing equipment, bouldering areas, lockers, washrooms, and other facilities in the Property or parking facilities outside of the Property), related events and activities at the Property (collectively the “Activities”), the undersigned acknowledges, appreciates, and agrees that;

  1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK: The Activities involve many inherent risks, dangers and hazards including but not limited to accidents which occur during physical activities, improper use of equipment, incomplete warnings or instructions, loss of balance, entanglement in ropes, slipping, tripping or loss of control, fall from a height, impact with the walls, floor, equipment, climbing holds, mechanical and other failure of equipment, malfunction of equipment, negligence of other attendees and other hazards related to my participation in the Activities, lack of awareness on the part of the Releases as to my health and ability to participate in the Activities, and negligence on the part of the Releasees, including the failure on the part of the Releasees to take reasonable steps to safeguard or protect me from the risks, dangers and hazards of my participation in the Activities. Such risk of injury from the Activities is significant and includes the potential for serious injury, including, without limitation, permanent paralysis and death.
  2. I KNOWINGLY AND FREELY ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS, dangers and hazards and the possibility of personal injury, property damage or loss resulting therefrom, both known and unknown, EVEN IF ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASEES or others and assume full responsibility for my participation. I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated from the Activities. My participation in the Activities is purely voluntary. I agree to, at all times, inspect my surroundings for possible risk and determine for myself that conditions are acceptable for me to commence or continue my participation in the Activities. I acknowledge that the Releasees are not responsible for active direct supervision of my participation in the Activities. I also agree my attendance, commencing or continuing, indicates acceptance of all hazards involved. I acknowledge that, before commencing the Activities, I will be familiar with and responsible for the correct use of the equipment provided to me by the Releasees and will immediately cease any Activities in the event I am unfamiliar with such proper use of the equipment. If I observe any unusual or significant hazard during my presence or participation, I will remove myself from participation and bring such hazard to the attention of the nearest Releasee immediately. I covenant to fulfill my obligations and obey the Rules, as may be amended from time to time.
  3. RELEASE OF LIABILITY, WAIVER OF CLAIMS AND INDEMNITY: In consideration of the Releasees allowing me to participate in the Activities, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, I hereby agree:
    • to waive any and all claims that I have or may have in the future against the Releasees and to release the Releasees from any and all liability for any loss, damage, expense or injury, including death, that I may suffer or that my next of kin may suffer, as a result of my participation in the Activities, due to any cause whatsoever, including negligence, breach of contract, or breach of any statutory or other duty of care, including any duty of care owed under the Occupiers’ Liability Act, RSO 1990, c O2, on the part of the Releasees, and further including the failure on the part of the Releasees to take reasonable steps to safeguard or protect me from the risks, dangers and hazards of participating in the Activities;
    • that the Releasees are not liable or responsible for any damage to, loss or theft of my property; and,
    • to hold harmless and indemnify the Releasees from any and all liability for any damage, loss, claim, action, suit or personal injury resulting, directly or indirectly, from my participation in the Activities. I further agree that if despite this Release Agreement, I, or anyone on my behalf, makes a claim against any of the Releasees, I will indemnify, save and hold harmless each of the Releasees from any litigation expenses, legal fees, loss, liability, damage or cost which may incur as the result of such claim.
  4. This Release Agreement shall be effective and binding upon my heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, legal representatives, assigns and representatives.
  5. This Release Agreement and any rights, duties and obligations as between the parties to this Release Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted solely in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and no other jurisdiction, and any litigation involving the parties to this Release Agreement shall be brought solely within the Province of Ontario and shall be within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Ontario.
  6. I understand that a helmet is available to me free of charge, I may choose not to wear a helmet which may increase my risk of injury and if I choose to wear a helmet it is my responsibility to request a helmet or provide a helmet of good and sufficient quality and to use any such helmet properly.
  7. By entering into this Release Agreement, I am not relying on any oral or written representations or statements made by the Releasees with respect to the safety of participating in the Activities, other than what is set forth in this Release Agreement.
  8. I have read this Release Agreement prior to signing it, have had sufficient opportunity to review its terms, fully understand its terms, and I am aware that by signing this Release Agreement I am waiving substantial legal rights which I or my heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, assigns and representatives, may have against the Releasees. I confirm that I am signing this Release Agreement freely and voluntarily without any inducement, realizing that it is a legally binding document.
  9. This Release Agreement shall continue indefinitely but may, at the option of TJCCI, be required to be replaced by the undersigned from time to time.
  10. I confirm that I have been provided with an opportunity to request a copy of this Release Agreement.
