Dear Tim,
If you haven't paid much attention to the other emails we've sent, please take a close look at this one. We want to make your check-in process for each activity go as smoothly as possible, and we need your help.
Each participant is required to sign a liability waiver for each activity they do. We've taken as much of the work out as possible by putting the 'hard part' online. You just have to log in to the site, enter your information, follow the process and you're finished!
PASSWORD HINT: When you are done filling out the form, you will receive an email with your E-Waiver, and it is password protected for your privacy. Your password will be the second set of numbers in the PDF title (example: Waiver_34553_157401_410201753619PM.pdf). Enter it and you're in!
If you are the Group Leader, please forward this email intact to ALL members of your group.
Instructions:
Go enjoy life and pack for your trip. After all, you're coming on vacation. Get the work done now, and make way for the fun!
Of course, as with any new system, there could be an issue along the way. If you have trouble, please contact our office and we'll be more than happy to help get you through this process.
