COVID-19 DISCLAIMER AND WAIVER
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IN ITS ENTIRETY. You will be expected to agree to and sign a waiver before SUMMIT OF LIGHT will sponsor you on a mini sabbatical to any location during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. It is the sole responsibility of those sponsored to ask the host location about their specific COVID-19 protections and policies.
Assumption of Risk & Waiver of Liability Relating to Coronavirus (COVID-19)
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). COVID-19 is an extremely contagious and dangerous virus. It is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact and through the air from coughing, sneezing, etc. As a result, federal, state, and local governments, as well as federal and state health agencies have implemented or recommended preventative measures (i.e., wearing face masks, social distancing, washing hands, etc.); and in many locations have prohibited or severely limited the number of people that can gather in the same place, at the same time.
Conference centers and locations that host retreats, sabbaticals, and conferences have put in place preventive measures that are meant to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. However, neither they nor SUMMIT OF LIGHT can guarantee that you or your family will not become infected with COVID-19 should you choose to go on sabbatical at their location while the pandemic is still ongoing.
