I will participate in a safe and reasonable manner and if I observe any unusually significant hazards during my presence or participation, I will remove myself from participation and bring such hazards to the immediate attention of Shana Belden, or the nearest Georgia Tech official. Lastly, I grant Shana Belden, and the Georgia Tech Athletic Association (hereinafter referred to as the “Association”) all rights to use my photograph(s) from the event in perpetuity for any and all marketing the Association engages in, and any and all publications, videos, websites, or other printed or electronic materials produced by the Association or its agents for the Association’s use and benefit.
