Under New Hampshire law, a participant in equine activities assumes the risk of any injury, harm, damage, or death and any
legal responsibility that may occur to a participant from the inherent risks associated with equine activities. Pursuant to
R.S.A 508:19, Equine Professionals are not liable for damages resulting from the inherent risks of equine activities. All
owners and exhibitors will be held responsible for any damages incurred by them, their agents or employees to buildings,
stalls, rings and other properties on show grounds, and will be billed accordingly.

I agree to hold harmless New Hampshire Hunter Jumper Association and NEHC, its employees and volunteers, officers, and
showground staff from any damage or injury that occurs to any horse or rider, including myself, that I bring to any of the
New Hampshire Hunter Jumper Association horse shows held at Brookvale Pines Farm in Fremont, NH; The Fieldstone Show
Park in Halifax, MA, and the Three County Fairgrounds, Northampton, MA or at any other NHHJA sanctioned event.

Per NEHC Bylaw: Every entry at a recognized show shall constitute an agreement and affirmation that the person making it,
along with the owner, lessee, trainer, manager, agent, coach, driver, rider, and the horse: (1) shall be subject to the
Constitution and rules of the Association and the local rules of the show; (2) that every horse, rider, and/or driver is eligible
as entered;(3) that the owner and any of his representatives are bound by the Constitution and Rules of the NEHC and the
show will accept as final the decision of the hearing committee on any question arising under said rules and agree to hold
the show, the NEHC, their officials, directors and employees harmless for any action taken; (4) that the owner, rider/driver
and any of their agents or representatives agree to hold the NEHC, the show, and their officials, directors, employees and
agents harmless for any injury or loss suffered during or in connection with the show, whether or not such injury or loss
resulted, directly or indirectly, from the negligent acts or omissions of said officials, directors, employees or agents of the
NEHC or show.

Management reserves the right to decline or refuse any entry, without being liable for compensation, and eliminate from
further competition any exhibitor or horse, should the best interest of the show be served. Every exhibitor, or agent, and
trainer must sign an entry blank. In the event of failure to do so, the first entrance into the ring as an exhibitor, shall be
construed as acceptance of the rules of the show and of NEHC, and shall ipso facto render exhibitor subject to said rules.
No entry is permitted in the ring that is ineligible for competition.

                             Signatures must be on file for the rider to participate.
                     NO Membership WILL BE ACCEPTED without appropriate SIGNATURE PRESENT
