Waiver:

I hereby give my permission for the child(ren) under my care to participate in Queer Camp. Participation in any program which involves physical activity exposes the camper to certain risks and dangers. Accidents and injuries are always a possibility, and it is impossible to foresee and protect the camper from all conceivable dangers. I hereby affirm that I have disclosed any conditions that would make it unsafe for the child(ren) under my care to participate in Queer Camp. I understand that reasonable measures will be taken to safeguard the health and safety of all Queer Camp participants and that I will be notified as soon as possible in case of any emergency affecting the child(ren) under my care. In the event that I cannot be reached in an emergency, I hereby authorize emergency contact for the child(ren) under my care to act on my behalf. Furthermore, if the emergency contact nor I can be reached, I authorize Queer Camp/Good Shepherd Lutheran Church to select a physician and/or hospital to provide emergency medical and surgical treatment and to provide routine health care; to administer medications; to order x-rays, routine tests, treatment; to release any records necessary for insurance purposes; and to provide or arrange necessary related transportation. I understand that my insurance is the primary coverage and that I will be responsible for any/all fees incurred during emergency medical services for the child(ren) under my care.

I understand that the child(ren) under my care can be dismissed from camp for reasons including, but not limited to: consistently disruptive behaviors, illegal activity, persistent breaking of camp rules, emotional or physical abuse of another camper or staff member, contagious illness, or destruction of property. Acknowledging that participation in camping programs carries with it the risk of injury, I agree that Queer Camp, its agents and staff shall not be liable to me or the child(ren) under my care for any injury or damage, howsoever caused, resulting directly or indirectly from the child’s participation in Queer Camp at any time preceding, during, or after camp is in session. I hereby discharge Queer Camp/Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, their agents and employees from all actions, claims, and demands my child or I may have for any such injury or damage. I hereby grant permission to Queer Camp leadership, staff, and screened volunteers to involve my child in adventure/group building activities as part of the regular camp program.
