GENERAL RELEASE OF LIABILITY

Participant will be exposed to and potentially using such items as, hot stoves, hot oil, and sharp tools including knives, blenders, and graters.

Participant further releases and discharges Verdello for injury, loss or damage arising out of his/her or his/her family’s participation in a cooking class at Verdello, whether caused by the fault of Participant, his/her family, Verdello or other third parties.

CANCELLATION OF A CLASS OR EVENT

If cancellation occurs, Verdello will notify Participant as soon as possible.

While Verdello will attempt to reasonably accommodate a Participant’s allergies, participants will be exposed to various food products and Verdello cannot guarantee that Participant will not be exposed to potential allergens. If a potential Participant has any questions regarding a class and the ingredients of a class prior to the event, it is Participant’s sole responsibility to contact Verdello at 307-655-8777 during store hours.
