I, the equestrian rider and/or owner of the horse( s) or visitor of Orchard Park Equestrian at Quakerfield indicated below acknowledge that I participate voluntarily in the general riding, handling, lessons and competitions; I am fully aware that horse sports and general riding, handling, lessons and competitions involve inherent dangerous risks (i.e. brain, spinal, damage and injury that may result in death) and by participating I expressly assume any and all risks of injury or loss. I am completely responsible for my own safety in all circumstances as there are many potentially hazardous situations with noises from bangs and various equipment around the farm, such as tractors, drags and all other sorts of machinery. I agree to hold harmless Orchard Park Equestrian at Quakerfield, its owners, heirs and employees--harmless for any injury or loss suffered during,or in connection with, the horse industry and sport, whether or not such injury or loss suffered during, or indirectly from the negligent acts or omissions of the property owners.
