THIS RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND CONSENT TO MEDICAL CARE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) INCLUDES A RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND WAIVER OF CLAIMS. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.

The Navigators, a Colorado nonprofit religious corporation, sponsors and hosts events, programs, and other activities (the “Activities”) to encourage spiritual growth and fellowship. By signing, you agree not to hold The Navigators responsible for injuries or issues that might happen during your participation in their events or activities. You also give them permission to seek medical care for you if needed.

1. Activities and Assumption of Risk: The Navigators offers many activities—like classes, retreats, conferences and sports—both on its property and through its ministry programs. Any Navigator activity you join, whether on-site or off-site, supervised or not, is covered by this agreement. You acknowledge that your participation comes with inherent risk (like injury, illness, loss, or even death), and you assume these risks of participating. If I am accompanied by any minor children during any Activities, I agree that this Release and Indemnification applies equally to them. I further agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless The Navigators from any and all claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of or related to the participation or presence of such minor children, whether such claims are brought by the minor children themselves or by any other party on their behalf. I acknowledge that I am responsible for supervising any accompanying minors at all times.

2. Release of Liability and Indemnification of Claims: As a result of your participation, you—and your family or legal representatives—agree not to hold The Navigators or its team responsible for any injuries, illnesses, property damage, or other losses. You accept all risks and give up any claims related to your participation.

3. Medical Consent: If you are injured or become ill and are unable to consent to treatment, you agree that The Navigators can request emergency medical care on your behalf. You are responsible for all costs of medical treatment that may arise.

4. Illness: By signing, you understand and agree that you might be exposed to an illness (like COVID-19) while attending a Navigators event. The Navigators are following all safety guidelines from the government and the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), but they can’t completely remove the risk of getting sick. You accept this risk and understand that even with good hygiene and legal compliance, there’s no guarantee that illness won’t spread.

5. Miscellaneous: In the event that any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid for any reason, such invalidity shall not affect the validity of any of the other provisions, which other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

6. Governing Law: This Agreement is governed by and construed under the laws of Colorado, without reference to its Conflicts of Laws provisions. Any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or claim of breach hereof shall be brought exclusively in Colorado Springs, El Paso County, Colorado.

7. Dispute Resolution: If there’s a disagreement related to this Agreement, both sides agree to try to resolve it through respectful, good-faith discussions based on Biblical principles. If those discussions do not prove successful, the dispute will be handled through Christian mediation and, if needed, legally binding arbitration—following the Rules of Procedure for Christian Conciliation from the Institute for Christian Conciliation. Any final decision will be made official in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Both sides agree not to sue each other in court, except to enforce the outcome of the arbitration.

You further agree that the scope of this Release is not limited to the present and will continue throughout the course of your involvement with The Navigators.
