Cherry Creek Band Parent Association

Volunteer Liability Waiver and Agreement 

This document explains possible
risks of volunteering and includes liability waivers, consents, and other legal agreements.
By signing below, I, the volunteer (or volunteer’s legal guardian), acknowledge that entry into this agreement
(“Agreement”) is in consideration of my participation as a volunteer, and confirm my understanding and
agreement to the following:

Policies and Safety Rules
I will comply with Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association’s volunteer policies, safety rules,
conduct expectations, and other directions. I understand that Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent
Association does not tolerate bullying, harassment, threatening behavior, or violence of any kind. I understand
that noncompliance may result in termination of my volunteer status.

Volunteer Not an Employee
I understand that (a) I am not an employee of Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association, (b) I
will not be paid for my participation, and (c) I am not covered by or eligible for any Cherry Creek High School
and the Band Parent Association insurance, health care, worker’s compensation, or other benefits. I
understand that Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association may terminate my volunteer status
at any time, for any or no reason.

Risks Associated with Volunteering
Volunteering has risks. These risks may arise in a variety of ways. They include, without limitation: my lifting
heavy objects or otherwise exerting myself, handling glass and materials, using hot or sharp objects or other
tools, being exposed to dust, loud noises and interacting with and being in the presence of other volunteers,
visitors and other people. I understand that these risks include risks of injury, illness, death, and property
damage or loss, and that they may arise from my own actions or from the actions of others at or near Cherry
Creek High School facilities or encountered when traveling for activities offsite. I also understand that even if
Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association Client, I, and other persons present at Client
facilities follow all health and safety protocols, I may still be exposed to COVID-19 or other infectious diseases.

Awareness and Assumption of Risk
I understand the information above, and confirm and acknowledge that these are risks associated with
volunteering. With such information and awareness, and with the recognition that other factors may create
additional such risks, I knowingly, freely, and voluntarily: (a) sign up to volunteer for Client; (b) engage in
volunteer activities; and (c) assume and accept the risks of all injury, death, property damage or loss, financial
obligation, loss of privacy, loss of reputation, and all other injuries and other consequences, whether known or
unknown, whether foreseen or unforeseeable, and whether incurred at Client facilities or elsewhere, that may
result, directly or indirectly, from my presence at facilities or participation as a Client volunteer, regardless of
the cause.

Waiver and Release of Claims
I waive and release Client and its directors, officers, agents, employees, volunteers, and affiliates (collectively,
“Client Parties”) from any and all liability, claims, costs, and expenses of any kind and of whatever nature which
I or my heirs, next of kin, or legal representatives may have or which may later accrue, caused by or arising
directly or indirectly from my presence at any facilities or participation in activities. This release and waiver
includes, in each such case, all claims in respect of the risks noted above, known and unknown, foreseen and
unforeseeable, regardless of the cause or whether such claims arise from tort, contract, or otherwise, and even
if caused by negligence, whether passive or active. I will not sue Cherry Creek High School and the Band
Parent Association on the basis of these waived and released claims.

Disclosure of Medical Conditions
I understand that I am solely responsible for knowing my own physical condition and making my own decision
about volunteering. I have disclosed all medications and conditions relevant to my participation. I understand
that Client needs such information
because some medication side effects or medical conditions could affect my safety or that of others at Client. I consent to Client sharing this information with health professionals or first responders should I become ill or
injured while at Client facilities.

Medical Care Consent and Waiver
I authorize Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association to provide me with first aid and to
arrange medical assistance, transportation, and emergency medical services for me if I get hurt while
volunteering. I understand that Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association are not obligated to
provide this care. I also understand that I am solely responsible for any costs related to my medical treatment
and transport, and that Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association do not provide health,
medical, disability, or other insurance coverage for me.

Confidentiality
I may have access to confidential information. At all times during and after my participation, I agree to hold any
such confidential information in confidence and not disclose or use it except as authorized in writing.

Assignment of Work Product
I grant full rights to Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association in any reports, brochures,
website content, photos, images, videos, or other materials or works I may create in the course of volunteer
activities, and any intellectual property rights in or derivatives of such materials.

Use by Client of My Name and Image
I understand that Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association may take photos or videos of me.
I consent to use of my image, voice, name, and story, and of images of any works I may create as a volunteer
(collectively, “Materials”), for use in digital and print promotional, fundraising, educational, and other
communications. Cherry Creek High School and the Band Parent Association may use the Materials without
obtaining my approval or paying me for such use. I grant Client all copyrights in and waive any legal claims
relating to the Materials, including those relating to copyright, rights of publicity or privacy, or defamation, or
arising from any distortion, blurring, or alteration that may occur in the making, editing, or use of the Materials.

General Provisions
I understand that this Agreement will be binding for so long as I am a volunteer. This Agreement will run in
favor of, and may be enforced by, each of the Parties, and will bind my heirs, next of kin, and legal
representatives. This Agreement will be binding to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any provision of this
Agreement is found to be unenforceable, the other terms remain effective. This Agreement will be governed by
Colorado law.
