In consideration of the foregoing, I, myself, my heirs, and executors so hereby release and discharge the Lake Huron Coastal Centre and all of the LHCC supporting organizations for all claims, damages, actions, and whatever in any manner ensuring or growing out of my participation in the Coast Watchers program or other activities sponsored or organized by the LHCC.
