All riders must have a signed Release of Liability (RoL) before use. Minors must have an RoL signed by a parent or legal guardian A RoL must be signed because this is a skill based ride, as skill increases the rider can assume greater risk.

**Currently with the Covid-19 Pandemic the first line of response is proper water safety measures which include: watching children (if they are in the water so are you), take breaks often to not become fatigued, staying hydrated, not running through the park, and following all normal safety procedures with enhanced caution. Rescues will be made by our trained staff if necessary, however we’re hoping that families and friends will look out for one another during this time period.**
