Release and Permission:
“We the undersigned parents/guardians, grant permission for the participant to take part in SAC youth sponsored events for the year of 2024/2025. We represent to you that the participant is physically and mentally able to participate in activities. We understand that all information collected will remain confidential and is being gathered for the purpose of serving student(s) while in the care of SAC. If we as parents/guardians are not present at a specific activity in which our child is to participate, so as to be consulted in case of necessity, you are authorized on our behalf to arrange for such medical and hospital treatment as you may deem advisable for the health and well-being of the participant. The undersigned participant has insurance listed above. We as parents/guardians recognize that this is a Christian program and will have a spiritual emphasis.
PERMISSION for ALL events this season – A Calendar is circulated and updated regularly. It is understood that it is the parent’s responsibility to learn of events and risks by checking email, calendar and/or website before allowing your registered child to participate.
We as parents/guardians recognize that weekly meetings and events include indoor and outdoor games and physical activities that may include inherent risk and we give our child permission to participate. We understand that this may include off-site events, including but not limited to events in Victoria, Duncan, Lake Cowichan and Nanaimo and beach activities including swimming and boating. Events may involve vehicle travel and all inherent risk associated with the activities. We hereby authorize transportation in leader or volunteer vehicles throughout the year and we authorize permission for all events here.

Social networking through text messaging, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter etc. is the way youth communicate with each other on a routine basis. Plan to Protect 1 and Shawnigan Alliance Church acknowledge this reality but are still cognizant of protecting kids. Please be advised that Youth Leaders will not initiate contact with youth, other than advising on upcoming events and activities throughout the program year.
Note: Shawnigan Alliance Church is not responsible for children who are allowed to walk home, those who drive themselves home, or whose parents have allowed them to be picked up by people other than parents, after events.
“I have read and understand the information above and here give my signature of agreement to cover all student activities for the year.” (September 2024 to September 2025)
