I am the parent/guardian of a child or children attending Crosspointe's VBS. In bringing my child to Crosspointe's Illumination Station/2026/VBS, I acknowledge that participating in this event involves risk, including things like injury or being exposed to a communicable illness. When my child or children participate in this event and all activities associated with this event, I accept the risks associated with participation, as well as personal financial responsibility for any injury, illness, or other harm or loss related to the activity. I release and promise to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Crosspointe and its agents, employees, volunteers, or other representatives for any injury or illness arising directly or indirectly out of my child’s participation in this event and all activities associated with Crosspointe's Illumination Station/2026/VBS.    
 
I grant permission to representatives of Crosspointe to provide reasonable medical treatment for my child or children attending Crosspointe's Illumination Station/2026/VBS. This includes permission to call 911, take my child to the hospital, and/or perform first aid. I recognize that a Crosspointe representative will attempt to contact me before or during any medical situation involving my child, but I want my child to be treated promptly even if I am not immediately available or if emergency treatment needs to begin before I am reached. I release Crosspointe and its agents, employees, volunteers, or other representatives from any liability related to such immediate treatment of or response to a medical situation involving my child. I also agree that I am financially responsible for any medical or treatment costs, including any ambulance transportation provided to my child. If a dispute over this agreement or any claim for damages arises, I agree to resolve the matter through mediation and, if necessary, binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the Guidelines and Rules of Procedure of the Institute for Christian Conciliation, or similar rules. This is an alternative process to filing a lawsuit in the court system, and I agree that this alternative will be the only method available for resolving a dispute. This agreement does not, however, prevent me or anyone associated with Crosspointe from making a report to the authorities regarding suspected criminal conduct by an individual.
