Assumption of Risk
I understand, agree, and acknowledge that there are risks inherent in sports activities conducted by Splash Water Safety and Sara Beth Gilbert, including but not limited to paralyzing injuries, brain injuries, and death. These activities may be of a hazardous nature and/or may include activities such as swimming, diving, a variety of strenuous exercise, and physical activities. With the full understanding of the facts, I state that to the best of my knowledge, the student listed has no medical, physical, or emotional health conditions which would hinder or prevent his/her participation in Splash Water Safety's programs. If a condition is present, I am providing the necessary doctor's permission and/or my own permission as parent/guardian of the student to proceed with swim lessons or other activities conducted by Splash Water Safety and Sara Beth Gilbert.
Release of Liability
As the legal parent or guardian, I release Splash Water Safety, Sara Beth Gilbert, any of her assistants, and the pool owners from any and all liability, claims, demands, and causes of action whatsoever arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury, including death, that may be sustained by the participant and/or the undersigned while in, upon, or after leaving the premises or any premises under the control and supervision of Splash Water Safety.
Weather
All weather calls are made by the instructor. If inclement weather reaches the pool area shortly before or during my scheduled lesson, we will exit the pool and reschedule the remainder of the lesson. If thunder and lightning are in the area, we will not resume lessons until 30 minutes from the last strike of thunder or lightning. This is for everyone's safety.
Cancellations
If the instructor cancels a lesson, a makeup lesson will be offered. If I cancel a lesson, a makeup lesson may or may not be offered. No refunds are allowed if I choose to cancel or cannot attend lessons.
Procedures
I understand that all parents, guardians, and responsible adults (along with any siblings) who are not part of a class remain out of sight for the benefit of the student(s) from behavior and focus to maximizing their learning. I am required to be present the last 5 minutes of the lesson allowing me to see progress in the water, us to chat as needed, and instructor to transition my child back to me in a timely manner. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Progress
As an instructor of many things, Splash Water Safety guarantees we will learn something new; however instructors make no claims to guarantee that a student will be accomplishing unattempted tasks at any point in the future. Everyone makes progress in class; it is just unknown exactly how much progress will be made, though several variables allow for near-future estimations. While wanting to maintain a fun learning environment, the instructor also strategically plans to make each lesson as comprehensive as possible utilizing every moment to guide the student towards progress.
Payment Policies
Full payment is required to reserve my spot on the schedule; Otherwise, unless prior arrangements with Splash Water Safety are made, my scheduled times will be lost. If there are any discrepancies or reasons that the amount cannot be paid at the designated time, please contact Splash Water Safety. Payments are nonrefundable unless medical documentation for surgery or similar is provided.
Process Payments
I give Splash Water Safety permission to process my account using my saved method(s) of payment.
