In consideration of the services of Shoreline Lake Boathouse, Lakeside Café, Silicon Shores Corporation, their agents, owners, officers, volunteers, participants, employees, and all other persons or entities acting in any capacity on their behalf (hereinafter collectively referred to as "SSC") and the City of Mountain View and its officials and agents, I, for myself and any minor children for which I am parent, legal guardian or otherwise responsible hereby agree to release, indemnify, and discharge SSC, on behalf of myself, my children, my parents, my heirs, assigns, personal representative and estate as follows:

1. Participation in watersports classes including windsurfing, small boat sailing and racing, kayaking, pedalboating, rowing, stand up paddleboarding, SUP yoga and canoeing as with any other watersport, exposes the participant to certain risks and dangers. I acknowledge that my participation in water activities entails known and unanticipated risks (superficial to fatal) that could result in physical or emotional injury, paralysis, death, or damage to me, to property or to third parties. I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity. The risks include, among other things: board or boat capsize; collision with objects or other water craft (both power and sail); unseen obstacles, fatigue and your own misjudgment; prolonged exposure to cold water, hypothermia, accidental drowning; illness in remote areas; exposure to sun, strong wind, cold, storms, and lightning; aggressive and/or poisonous marine life; wrist, arm, shoulder, and/or back injuries; slips and falls while walking; twisted/sprained ankles, cuts/lacerations; and rapidly changing adverse weather and water conditions. Furthermore, SSC employees have difficult jobs to perform. They seek safety, but they are not infallible. They might be unaware of a participant's fitness or abilities. They might misjudge the weather, the elements, or the terrain. They may give inadequate warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction.

2. I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks existing in this activity. My participation in this activity is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks. Silicon Shores Corporation makes no warranties, either expressed or implied, as to any matter whatsoever, including without limitation, the condition of the equipment, its merchantability or its fitness for any particular purpose, and the user/participant accepts equipment as is. The undersigned hereby certifies that s/he is a proficient swimmer and agrees to be tested for swimming proficiency, if requested. Undersigned agrees to wear a PFD (life vest), if requested to do so by SSC staff or instructors.

3. I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless Shoreline Lake Boathouse, Lakeside Café/American Bistro, Silicon Shores Corporation and the City of Mountain View from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action, which are in any way connected with my participation in this activity or my use of SSC equipment, facilities or premises, including any such claims which allege negligent acts or omissions of SSC.

4. Should SSC, or anyone acting on their behalf, be required to incur attorney's fees and costs to enforce this agreement, I agree to indemnify and hold them harmless for all such fees and costs.

5. I certify that I have adequate insurance to cover any injury or damage I may cause or suffer while participating, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage myself. I further certify that I am willing to assume the risk of any medical or physical condition I may have.

6. In the event that I file a lawsuit against SSC, I agree to do so solely in the state of California, and I further agree that the substantive law of that state shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of law rules of that state. I agree that if any portion of this agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining portion shall remain in full force and effect.

7. Participants of said recreational activity or likeness thereof may be captured on film, print or other media and used for promotional purposes including, but not limited to newsletters, press media, flyers, social media and brochures.

Refunds and Transfers

Policies updated January 30, 2022

Payments for all class and camp programs are subject to the following policies:

Payments which qualify for refund under these policies may be eligible for refund up to 1 year from the payment date. Any refund request received more than 1 year after the payment date will only be eligible for credit on account, if such credit is allowed under these policies.

Shoreline Boathouse reserves the right to cancel (or modify the timeframe of) any class or activity if minimum enrollment is not met.

A total refund will only be issued if the Shoreline Boathouse must cancel a class or reschedule it such that a student/camper is unable to attend another date.

A 70% refund will be issued for withdrawals made 15 or more days prior to the first day of the program.

If eligible for refund, customer may instead request credit for the full payment amount, less a $30 transfer fee, be held on account and this credit will be usable until the end of the following calendar year.

No refunds will be given within 14 days prior to the first day of the program. Withdrawals made within 14 days prior will be eligible for transfer or credit on account only.

Once the start date is reached withdrawals are not allowed. Transfer or credit on account will not be permitted and payment is forfeit.

Transfers or credit on account (including those made due to a withdrawal within 14 days) will be charged a non-refundable $30 transfer fee. Transfers or credit on account requested within 7 days prior to the first day of the program will instead incur a 50% fee.

Registrations made via transfer within 14 days prior to the original start date will not be eligible for refund at any time if a subsequent withdrawal is requested, regardless of how far in advance of the new start date notice of withdrawal is given.

Program pricing is subject to change. Transfers or credit on account will cover the specified dollar amount but may not cover the full price of future sessions which the transfer or credit may be applied to.

Any individual circumventing these policies by initiating a chargeback with their credit card company will thereafter be considered not in good standing with Shoreline Boathouse until such time as all outstanding monies are paid, including but not limited to the original payment amount for which a chargeback was initiated and any and all fees incurred by the chargeback process. Individuals not in good standing and their family members may be barred from participation in any classes or camps at the discretion of Shoreline Lake management. Payments for individuals barred from participation under this provision will be treated as a withdrawal initiated by the customer (rather than a cancellation initiated by Shoreline Boathouse) and will be subject to all of the foregoing policies.

Summary of Refund Policies:

For cancellations 15 or more days prior to start date:

70% refund OR transfer/credit on account (less $30 fee)
