Parent Acknowledgement
As the parent/legal guardian or ‘adult entrusted to care’, of an indoor children’s play area ‘participant(s)’, I
recognize that possible injury to ‘participant(s)’, property and or third parties can occur in activities such as
climbing, running, tumbling, jumping and otherwise general play (‘play activities’); being fully aware of these
dangers, I voluntarily consent to my child(ren) (and or the children I am entrusted to care for), to participate in
play activities in Pine Centre Mall’s ‘pine for play indoor play area’ AND I accept all risks associated with that
participation. I further agree to adhere to all of the Children’s Play Area Rules and Regulations (noted below) and
acknowledge that Pine Centre Mall reserves the right to refuse access to the play area if said rules and
regulations are not observed.
