Niagara Falls Nature Club Waivers
Please take a few minutes to read carefully and then fill out the NFNC Release of Liability.
There are three waiver forms on our website. Members need only fill out the NFNC Release of Liability – one for each person, not family. If you have children who accompany you on outings or to meetings, please fill out an Addendum – Release of Liability for Minors for each child. These waivers only need to be filled out once each year. You can either sign them electronically and email them to niagarafallsnatureclub@gmail.com or print them and sign and bring them to the next outing or meeting that you attend. Please let us know if any information on your form changes.
The non-member waiver is only for guests who will attend a single walk.
