I execute this release with the express intention of effecting any legal consequences provided by Colorado Civil Code, that is, the release of all liability associated with participating with Candice Ensign, “Journey With Equus,” activities, programs, and events. This letter of agreement shall constitute the full and complete understanding between the parties and shall supersede any prior or contemporaneous representations or agreements, oral or written.

“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known to him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

“Journey With Equus” seeks and strives for safety at all times. However, I understand that there are certain risks inherent in equine related activities. I acknowledge that all activities involving horses (included but not limited to: horseback riding, handling, leading, groundwork and other contact) involve this degree of risk.

I further understand that I am not covered by “Journey With Equus”’s insurance policy.

I acknowledge that I have been given the opportunity to ask questions regarding any aspect of the release contained herein, and by signing below, I acknowledge that I have carefully and completely read and fully understand all aspects of the release and agree to these terms in their entirety. I hereby agree that should any legal proceeding arise relating to this general release and agreement, the disallowance of any term or condition will not prevent the legal enforcement of all other terms and conditions of said agreement. Having been so apprised, I hereby elect to and do assume all of the risk for claims heretofore or hereafter arising known or unknown, from this release and from my participation.
