STUDENT INFORMATION

PARENT/GUARDIAN INFORMATION

EMERGENCY CONTACT

MEDICAL INFORMATION

I understand this information will be shared only as reasonably necessary for my student's safety and care.

PICKUP & RELEASE

I understand that I am responsible for promptly picking up my student when requested because of illness, injury, unsafe behavior, or another concern. The church may require identification before releasing a student when appropriate.

TRANSPORTATION AUTHORIZATION

I authorize The Well Church and its approved staff or volunteers to transport my student for church-sponsored activities using church, personal, rental, charter, or other appropriate transportation.

I understand that transportation may be provided by screened volunteer drivers who carry legally required automobile insurance. My student must wear a seat belt and follow all transportation safety instructions at all times.

PERMISSION TO PARTICIPATE & ASSUMPTION OF RISK

I give permission for my student to participate in Ignite Youth and other The Well Church/The Well International youth activities during this agreement's term, including weekly gatherings, camps, retreats, trips, service projects, sports, recreation, water activities, and other church-sponsored activities on or off church property.

I understand that participation involves inherent risks, including illness, communicable diseases, injury, accidents, transportation accidents, weather, water activities, food reactions, equipment failure, property damage, and other unforeseen hazards. I voluntarily assume these risks.

LIABILITY RELEASE & MEDICAL AUTHORIZATION

To the fullest extent permitted by Michigan law, I release and hold harmless The Well Church, The Well International, and their pastors, directors, officers, staff, leaders, volunteers, drivers, and representatives from claims arising from my student's participation or transportation, except where such release is prohibited by law.

If I cannot be reached in an emergency, I authorize church leaders to obtain emergency medical care, contact emergency services, arrange transportation, and consent to necessary treatment.

I understand that The Well Church does not provide health or accident insurance for participants and that I am responsible for medical and related expenses.

STUDENT CONDUCT

I understand that my student is expected to follow leader instructions, respect others and property, and behave safely and appropriately.

The Well Church may remove a student from an activity for unsafe, disruptive, or inappropriate behavior. I agree to promptly arrange pickup and accept responsibility for reasonable costs resulting from my student's intentional misconduct or rule violations.

MEDIA CONSENT

Media consent remains in effect for this agreement's term unless revoked in writing.

PARENT/GUARDIAN ACKNOWLEDGMENT

By signing below, I confirm that I am the student's parent or legal guardian, that the information provided is accurate, and that I have read and agree to this entire agreement.

I understand that this agreement is governed by Michigan law. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

I understand that this form is effective for one year from date of signing.
