1 - Assumption of Risk
I voluntarily enter and/or participate in activities at Cantona Homestead, including interaction with animals, children’s play areas, outdoor areas, equipment, and related recreational or educational activities.
I understand that these activities involve inherent and other risks, including contact with animals (such as goats, sheep, rabbits, and ponies), animal bites, kicks or unpredictable behavior; falls, slips and collisions; uneven, wet, muddy or outdoor surfaces; exposure to animals, insects, allergens and natural conditions; equipment or play-area hazards; bodily injury, illness, property damage, permanent injury, and in rare cases, death.
I knowingly and voluntarily accept and assume these risks.
2 – Release of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY TEXAS LAW, I RELEASE, WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO SUE THE OWNER AND/OR OPERATOR OF CANTONA HOMESTEAD, WHETHER THE SAME OR DISTINCT PERSONS OR LEGAL ENTITIES, TOGETHER WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, CONTRACTORS, LANDOWNERS AND REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, THE “RELEASED PARTIES”), FOR CLAIMS ARISING FROM MY PARTICIPATION IN ACTIVITIES AT, OR PRESENCE ON THE PREMISES OF, CANTONA HOMESTEAD, INCLUDING CLAIMS CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY RELEASED PARTY.
This release includes claims for personal injury, illness, death, or property loss or damage. It does not release gross negligence, willful or intentional misconduct, or any liability that cannot legally be waived.
