Read and Sign Waiver

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that:<br />
<br />
1. I state that the information provided in this application reflects a true and accurate summary of my personal status to the best of my ability.<br />
2. I am at least 18 years of age and in physical condition and able to handle the rigors of the day (flight day is generally a 0430 airport arrival for departure, full day of travel and activies and returning approx. 2145)<br />
3. I understand that I may be walking on uneven ground such as grass, pavers, gravel; I am able to push a wheelchair (if needed), walk with my Veteran to, from and around Memorials and may be exposed to possible inclement weather.<br />
4. I am aware that this is not a tourist type of day for me, that I will stay with the group and my assigned Veteran(s) and my attention will be on them so they have the best experience at their memorials.<br />
5. I also state that I understand that personal medical insurance is my responsibility and I understand that Southwest Florida Honor Flight does not provide medical care for me. I understand that I accept all risks associated with travel and other Southwest Florida Honor Flight activities and will not hold Southwest Florida Honor Flight staff and Honor Flight volunteers or vendors encountered during related activities responsible for any injuries or illness incurred by me while participating in the Southwest Florida Honor Flight program.<br />
6. SWFL HF Leaderships trip focus is safety, dignity, and honoring our Veterans. Since the Orientation is the first opportunity to evaluate the physical condition and capability of a proposed Guardian to fulfill that role, the SWFL HF Board of Directors reserves the right to evaluate a proposed Guardians ability to safely accomplish those duties and, if necessary, assign another person to serve as the Veterans escort.<br />
7. Serving as a Guardian is an honor and you are expected to attend the Mandatory Orientation (generally the Saturday prior to flight). At Orientation you will meet and receive the information of the Veteran you are assigned to.<br />
8. As photographic, video, and audio equipment are frequently used to memorialize and document Honor Flight trips and events, my image may appear in a public forum, such as the media or a website, to acknowledge, promote, or advance the work of the Honor Flight program. I hereby release the videographer/photographer and Southwest Florida Honor Flight from all claims and liability relating to said images. I hereby give permission for my images captured during Honor Flight activities through video, photo, or other media, to be used solely for the purposes of Honor Flight promotional material and publications, and waive any rights of compensation or ownership thereto.<br />
9. I understand that by completing this application is not a guarantee to go on an Honor Flight. You will be contacted by SWFL Honor Flight leadership who will confirm your participation and the flight dates.<br />
10. I understand that a guardian payment will be required before the trip and that this payment is to be made on or before the mandatory orientation. (please note, fees are generally $500-$550 depending upon sponsorships and fundraisers by the Hub and the actual flight costs. You will be given the exact amount at the time of your confirmation as a guardian.<br />
<br />
(Please know, flight day is a give and take kind of day and we expect everyone to go with the flow when <br />
plans may change due to reasons out of the control of hub leaders, such as weather, traffic, etc.)

I accept the terms of the waiver.
