On my behalf, and on behalf of any minor children participating in these activities, for whom I am legally responsible, I agree to the following:

3. WEIGHT RESTRICTION - Maximum of 230 lbs. for all riders.
4. I understand that the concessionaire reserves the right to refuse any person it judges to be incapable of meeting the rigors and requirements of participating in such activities. I acknowledge that I have not taken any drugs, alcohol and/or medication and that I have no injuries or illness that would affect my ability to ride a horse; 
5. Horses may collide with other horses or objects or trip, stumble or fall even if being led, ridden or attended to properly;

11. Negligence on the part of a property owner and/or the provider, or their staff. 

I am also aware that the risks, dangers and hazards referred to above exist throughout the trail, stable, practice and other areas, and many are unmarked. I understand and acknowledge that no amount of caution, experience or instruction can eliminate all of the risks involved and I freely accept and fully assume all such risks, dangers and hazards and the possibility of personal injury, death, property damage and damages, or loss resulting therefrom. 

In consideration of the concessionaire providing me or my child with their horse or other services and permitting my or my child’s use of their equipment, and other facilities and the Property Owners providing me or my child with the use of their property (hereinafter collectively referred to as “the Services”), I agree as follows:

2. TO HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNIFY THE RELEASEES from any and all liability for any damages to the property of or personal injury to any third party resulting from my or my child’s use of the services; and
3. This Agreement shall be effective and binding upon my or my child’s heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, assignees and representatives in the event of my child’s death or incapacity; and
