The Participant voluntarily desires to participate in activities organized by SWH and the travel to and from those activities. The Participant understands that the activities of SWH may include activities hazardous to the Participant, including travel to and from activities of SWH.

The Participant agrees that binding arbitration before a single arbitrator in York County, South Carolina pursuant to the Rules of the American Arbitration Association shall be the exclusive means of resolving all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Participant’s travel with or participation in the activities of SWH.
