Each of the undersigned has observed events of the type that the minor seeks to participate in. We further understand that the arena surface, access ways or lack thereof, lighting or lack thereof, and weather conditions all change and pose a danger to the minor. We further understand that other contestants and participants pose a danger to the minor, but nevertheless, WE EACH VOLUNTARILY ELECT TO ACCEPT ALL RISKS connected with the minor’s entry into the restricted area and/or participation in any rodeo events. 3. AGREE that this agreement shall apply to any incident, injury, accident or death occurring on the above date and FOR A PERIOD OF ONE (1) YEAR THERAFTER or until the minor’s association membership expires, whichever shall last occur. All subsequent agreements and release documents signed by any of the undersigned shall amplify, but shall in no way limit the provisions of this document. The provisions of this document may be cancelled by any one of the undersigned by delivering to the above rodeo association written cancellation of this agreement which shall be effective 24 hours after the date said cancellation is actually received by the rodeo association. 4. Releasor or parents or guardians of the undersigned minor AGREE TO INDEMNIFY the Releasees and each of them from any loss, liability, damage or costs they may incur due to the presence or participation of the minor in the described activities whether caused by the negligence of the Releasees or otherwise.
