Tallgrass Prairie Volunteers

LIABILITY RELEASE FORM – Calendar Year 2009

I, _________________________________________, have volunteered to assist The Nature Conservancy (the “Conservancy”), a nonprofit corporation organized and existing under the laws of the District of Columbia, at the Tallgrass Prairie Preserve near Pawhuska, Oklahoma.

I have volunteered my time and services because of my support for the Conservancy and my desire to participate actively in the furtherance of its work. In the course of such volunteer service, I agree to abide by all relevant rules and regulations of the Conservancy. I understand that I serve at the pleasure of the Preserve Director, and I agree to terminate my service as a docent if directed to by the Director.

I understand that my activities as a volunteer may expose me to hazards such as vehicular traffic over both improved and unimproved roads, weather, domesticated and wild animals (especially bison), fire, navigating natural landscapes, use of tools and equipment, and strenuous manual labor. I further understand that accidents or injuries may occur in locations or under circumstances where medical attention is not readily available. I expressly assume all such risks associated with my volunteer activities, and therefore agree not to initiate any action against the Conservancy relating to any incident associated with the normal course of such activities.
