Abilene Home Away From Home Program
RELEASE AND LIABILITY WAIVER
1. I am a volunteer to participate in the Abilene Home Away From Home Program (Program). I understand that foreseeable and unforeseeable risks and dangers may arise from the negligence, misconduct, or malfeasance of Program participants, which might lead to personal injury, property damage, or death. I understand that my execution of this Release and Liability Waiver is a prerequisite for voluntary participation in the Program.
2. I do hereby forever waive all claims of liability and release all United States Air Force entities to include Dyess Air Force Base, the 7th Bomb Wing, the 317th Airlift Wing, 489th Bomb Group, and all affiliated units and commanders from all civil liability, claims and lawsuits which may arise from my participation in the Program or from the negligence, misconduct, or malfeasance of Program participants.
3. I do hereby agree to assume full responsibility for my safety and indemnify, save, hold harmless, and defend the Government of the United States, its departments, agencies, employees, officers, and agents active officially or otherwise, from any and all liability, claims, demands, and actions that may occur, resulting from my participation in the Program. This Release and Liability Waiver shall bind all of my heirs, successors, and assigns.
4. I understand that my acceptance in the Program is subject to review by the Board of Directors in accordance with the Program's by-laws.
5. I agree to the release of personal information provided by me in the Program's Host Family Application to the Program's Board of Directors, the participating Airmen assigned to me by the Program, and as indicated in the Program's Host Family Application.
6. This Release and Liability Waiver shall NOT affect my ability to personally sue, file claims against, or file police reports concerning the Airmen I sponsor.
7. I hereby acknowledge that I have read and understand the foregoing, and voluntarily agree to its terms.
8. Host families are advised that the Program will establish policies and rules to prohibit underage Airmen from consuming alcohol at all official events. Use of alcohol in the host family's home is always discretionary, but host families are reminded that serving alcohol to underage military members is a crime under Texas law. Furthermore, consumption of alcohol by underage military members is a violation of Texas law and the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Conviction under Texas law or the UCMJ will have serious repercussions on the military member's career.
