THIS CONTRACT LIMITS OUR LIABILITY - READ IT CAREFULLY | RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY

In consideration for my participation in the Copperstate Double Gun, its related events and activities I, the undersigned, hereby agree to abide by the terms and conditions of this Release and Waiver of Liability. In furtherance of same, I acknowledge and agree that there is a risk of property damage, personal injury and death associated with participation in the Copperstate Double Gun event. I understand that these risks and dangers may arise from foreseeable or unforeseeable causes and may result from the negligent actions of the Phoenix Art Museum (“PAM”), Copperstate Double Gun and Men’s Arts Council (“MAC”) members, volunteers and employees (collectively referred to as “Releasees”), other participants, the general public, the forces of nature and the undersigned themselves.

The Copperstate Double Gun will include target shooting activities involving firearms, live ammunition and other weaponry. The undersigned acknowledges that they are familiar with the risks associated with the discharge of firearms and utilization of dangerous weapons. The undersigned acknowledges they are familiar with their ability to discharge and utilize such weapons in a safe manner and that they are in compliance with all Federal and State laws and regulations pertaining to the use and possession of firearms. The undersigned further acknowledges that, in the event that they are not familiar with safe firearm practices and/or safe utilization of the other forms of weaponry, they will notify the event organizers and will decline to participate in any such activities. Further, should the undersigned observe any significant hazard or risk during the event, the undersigned will remove him or herself from participation and bring such hazard or risk to the attention of the event organizers. The undersigned also acknowledges that they will not handle or shoot any weapon if they are under the influence of alcohol or any other substance which may impair their judgement or the ability to safely handle any weapon.

The undersigned acknowledges that the risks and dangers associated with the Copperstate Double Gun may be caused by the negligence of Copperstate Double Gun organizers, MAC, PAM, their members, agents, sponsors, employees, other participants and any event volunteers. These negligent acts may include but are not limited to: negligent handling and discharge of firearms and handling and use of other weapons, negligent operation of motor vehicles and golf carts, failure to warn of or remedy dangerous conditions and which may exist on any land, premises or roadway occupied during the event, selection of shooting venue and course suitable to the skills of any participant, selection of any participant, furtherance of the event under prevailing conditions, service of food and drink, to include intoxicating beverages, providing adequate security and failing to take actions necessary to ensure the safety and wellbeing of participants. I further acknowledge and understand that the Copperstate Double Gun promoters reserve the right to revoke my shooting privileges and/or refuse to serve me intoxicating beverages at any time in their sole discretion.

I acknowledge that this Release and Waiver of Liability Agreement is governed by the laws of the state of Arizona and is to be interpreted as broadly and as inclusively as permitted by Arizona law. In the event that any portion of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of the Agreement shall not be affected or impaired in any way shape or form and shall continue in the full legal force and effect. I acknowledge and agree that any action brought against the Releasees must be brought within the state of Arizona via Arizona state or federal courts. I further agree that Arizona is the appropriate location for any action which I may bring and that I will not seek to transfer any action to any forum or venue outside of the state of Arizona. Because this document is a contract, if a lawsuit is filed against the Releasees for any injury or damage in breach of this Agreement, I will be obligated to pay attorney’s fees and costs consistent with A.R.S. §12-341.01.

With acknowledgment of above, I, for myself and behalf of my heirs, assigns, personal and legal representatives and next of kin, agree to assume all risks associated with the Copperstate Double Gun and to release, hold harmless and to a covenant not to sue Releasees to include MAC, PAM, CSDG organizers, their members, agents, sponsors, and employees, and any designated beneficiaries, donors, sponsors, sponsoring agencies or participating community organizations for any claim, loss or liability that may arise in connection with the CSDG and any ancillary activities.
