July 5, 2022 "Jubal Early's Attack on July 1st“
LBG Rick Schroeder
The focus of this field program will be the timely arrival of General Jubal Early's Second Corps brigades on the Union right flank on the afternoon of July 1st. Participants should park on Howard Avenue at Barlow's Knoll and meet in the Benner farmhouse yard where the program will begin. The brigades will be followed into town, down along the Harrisburg Road and ending at the Coster Avenue mural.
In consideration of the services of The Association of Licensed Battlefield Guides®, their officers, agents, and members, and/or all other persons or entities associated with those businesses (hereinafter collectively referred to as “ALBG”) I agree as follows:
Although ALBG has taken reasonable steps to provide me with appropriate equipment and experienced, skilled guides so I can enjoy an activity for which I may not be skilled, ALBG has informed me this activity is not without risk. Certain risks are inherent in each activity and cannot be eliminated without destroying the unique character of the activity. These inherent risks are some of the same elements that contribute to the unique character of this activity and can be the cause of loss or damage to my equipment, or accidental injury, illness, or in extreme cases, permanent injury, trauma and/ or death. ALBG does not want to frighten me or reduce my enthusiasm for this activity, but believes it is important for me to know in advance what to be aware of and to expect and to be informed of the inherent risks as reasonably as possible. Most programs will be conducted on the grounds of the Gettysburg National Military Park (“GNMP”). The following describes some, but not all, of those risks.
I am aware that outdoors programs entail risks of injury, trauma and/or death to any participant. I understand the description of these inherent risks is as complete as is reasonably possible, and that other unknown or unanticipated inherent risks may result in injury, trauma and/or death. I agree to assume and accept full responsibility for the inherent risks identified herein and those inherent risks not specifically identified but may also occur. My participation in this activity is purely voluntary; no one is forcing me to participate and I elect to participate in spite of and with full knowledge of the inherent risks.
I acknowledge that engaging in this activity may require a degree of skill and knowledge different than other activities and that I have responsibilities as a participant. I acknowledge that the staff of ALBG [and the Staff of the Gettysburg National Military Park who are publicly available to all Visitors for information at no charge] has been available to more fully explain to me the nature and physical demands of this activity and the inherent risks, hazards, and dangers associated with this activity.
I certify that I am fully capable of participating in this activity. Therefore, I assume and accept full responsibility for myself, including all minor children in my care, custody, and control, for bodily injury, death or loss of personal property [including but not limited to automobiles, other vehicles, pets, etc.] and expenses as a result of those inherent risks and dangers identified herein and those inherent risks and dangers not specifically identified, and as a result of my negligence in participating in this activity.
I have carefully read, clearly understood and accepted the terms and conditions stated herein and acknowledge that this agreement shall be effective and binding upon myself, my heirs, assigns, personal representative and estate and for all members of my family, including minor children.
