In consideration of the acceptance of my request to serve as a CEI Participant with the WAVE Foundation at Newport Aquarium, I herby for the above participant, waive, release and forever discharge the WAVE Foundation and Newport Aquarium, from any and all loss, liability, rights, claims, and damages to person or property, whether or not such injury, loss or damage is caused by the negligent acts or omissions of the “Releases” which I may have or which may hereafter accrue to me against them, or any of them, from said association with, or participation in and/or arising out of my traveling to, or returning from my shadow activities with the WAVE Foundation. I understand that an aquarium contains wild animals and an effort is made so that they may live in a natural habitat. I recognize the fact that I assume risks when working with such wild animals. One of these risks is zoonosis; which is a communicable disease from animals to humans under natural conditions. As a CEI Participant, I could be exposed to shellfish or other kinds of fish that can create an allergic reaction. I agree and consent to serve as a job shadow with the WAVE Foundation, and further agree that I am not to be regarded as an employee or entitled to any benefits or status of employment. I certify that the statements on this CEI Participant application are true and accurate.
By completing this form, I agree that my child has permission to participate in all activities and that the WAVE Foundation and Newport Aquarium have permission to use my child's name and photograph for educational and public relations purposes related to the WAVE Foundation and Newport Aquarium.
