MarineLab/MRDF educational programs offer rewarding experiences to develop Participant’s knowledge and skills essential to understanding marine sciences and resources. In consideration of myself or my child (PARTICIPANT) being al-lowed to participate in the Program Activities I HEREBY AGREE TO BE CONTRACTUALLY BOUND BY THE FOLLOWING:

NOTICE TO THE MINOR CHILD’S NATURAL GUARDIAN (Pursuant to Florida Statutes § 774.301)

READ THIS FORM COMPLETELY AND CAREFULLY. YOU ARE AGREEING TO LET YOUR MINOR CHILD ENGAGE IN A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ACTIVITY. YOU ARE AGREEING THAT, EVEN IF MarineLab/Marine Resources Development Foundation, Inc., Key Largo Undersea Park, Inc., Roland Creese LLC d/b/a Island Ventures, their boats (whether owned, operated, leased, or chartered), their owners, directors, spon-sors, agents, employees, volunteers, instructors, assistants, educational groups, individuals and all others in connection with Program Activities, whether specifi-cally named or not (herein “Released Parties”) USE REASONABLE CARE IN PROVID-ING THIS ACTIVITY, THERE IS A CHANCE YOUR CHILD MAY BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED BY PARTICIPATING IN THIS ACTIVITY BECAUSE THERE ARE CERTAIN DANGERS INHERENT IN THE ACTIVITY WHICH CANNOT BE AVOIDED OR ELIMINATED. BY SIGN-ING THIS FORM YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR CHILD’S RIGHT AND YOUR RIGHT TO RE-COVER FROM THE RELEASED PARTIES IN A LAWSUIT FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, IN-CLUDING DEATH, TO YOUR CHILD OR ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE THAT RESULTS FROM THE RISKS THAT ARE A NATURAL PART OF THE ACTIVITY. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE TO SIGN THIS FORM, AND THE RELEASED PARTIES HAVE THE RIGHT TO RE-FUSE TO LET YOUR CHILD PARTICIPATE IF YOU DO NOT SIGN THIS FORM. In consideration of being allowed to participate in the Program Activities I HEREBY AGREE TO BE CONTRACTUALLY BOUND BY THE FOLLOWING:

Contract Parties: On behalf of MYSELF, MY MINOR CHILD, OUR FAMILY, HEIRS, ASSIGNS, REPRESENTATIVES & ALL OTH-ERS WHO MAY HAVE A CLAIM ON MY OR MY MINOR CHILD’S BEHALF (hereafter “I” or “Participant”), I voluntarily enter into this contract with MarineLab/Marine Resources Development Foundation, Inc., Key Largo Undersea Park, Inc., RolandCreese LLC d/b/a Island Ventures, boats (whether owned, operated, leased, or chartered), their owners, directors, spon-sors, agents, employees, volunteers, instructors, assistants, educational groups, individuals and all others in connection with Program Activities, whether specifically named or not (hereafter “Released Parties”).

Participant Responsibilities & Assumption of Risks: I am a certified diver or a student under the supervision of my dive instructor. I understand there are inherent risks of serious injury, illness and death associated with swimming, snorkeling, breath-hold diving, scuba diving, hookah diving, underwater habitats, boating, entering/exiting the water and related aquatic educational activities (herein “Program Activities”). I will use all safe diving practices, plan my dive, remain with my dive partner, maintain situational and self awareness, and use my good judgment to reduce these risks, however, I know the risk of serious injury, illness and death cannot be completely eliminated. It is my responsibility to inspect my equipment prior to each dive and to monitor my gas supply throughout my dive. I accept sole responsibility for the function and adequacy of the equipment and breathing gases I use. I understand Program Activities will expose me to risk of panic, drowning, stings, bites, infections, decompression illness, overexpansion injuries, pressure related injuries, breathing gas toxicities, dangerous environmental conditions, etc., and boating will expose me to risk of unexpected movement, danger-ous environmental conditions, fire, capsize, sinking, grounding, abandonment, collision, being struck by a boat, hazards of the sea, etc. My participation in Program Activities is voluntary and if I do not feel capable or competent, then I will refrain from that activity. I agree to be solely responsible for my health and safety. DESPITE THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY, ILL-NESS & DEATH, I VOLUNTARILY CHOOSE TO PARTICIPATE IN PROGRAM ACTIVITIES AND ASSUME ALL RISKS, WHETHER FORESEEN OR UNFORESEEN, AND WHETHER CREATED OR NOT BY THE RELEASED PARTIES, ASSOCIATED WITH MY PAR-TICIPATION IN PROGRAM ACTIVITIES.
