The safety and comfort of our guests is our first concern. We have worked diligently with our Tour Operator to give you the peace of mind you expect. However, there is no way to eliminate all possible risks while traveling and Blue Barn Quilt Co. Inc. and Journeys Connect therefore cannot assume liability in the unlikely event you contract COVID-19. This is the reason for the necessity of the following waiver of liability:

The novel coronavirus, (herein “COVID-19) has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments have recommended physical distancing, limiting group sizes in some locations and wearing face coverings. While Blue Barn Quilt Co.

Inc., Journeys Connect, and our supplier partners in Europe have put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID- 19, we cannot guarantee that you or your travel party will not become infected with COVID-19 while traveling. In fact, traveling could increase your risk of contracting COVID-19.

By signing this agreement, you acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that you may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 while traveling with Blue Barn Quilt Co. Inc. and Journeys Connect, and that contact with the virus that causes COVID-19 may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. You understand that the risk of becoming infected by COVID-19 on a Blue Barn Quilt Co.

You understand that you could encounter others, including but not limited to others traveling on this trip, who have COVID-19 or other infectious diseases, or who are infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 or other viruses but who exhibit no symptoms of infection or an infectious disease, which could result in your having serious medical conditions requiring medical treatment in a hospital, quarantine in a government-appointed location, and could possibly lead to death. You agree that having considered these risks, you desire to participate in the Blue Barn Quilt Co. Inc./Journeys Connect trip and you freely and voluntarily assume complete personal responsibility for the risk of exposure, illness, and death due to COVID-19, even if such injuries or death occur in a manner that is not foreseeable at the time this agreement is signed.

You acknowledge that you have been strongly advised to have comprehensive health insurance (including “travel insurance”).

You acknowledge that you are voluntarily participating in this Blue Barn Quilt Co. Inc./Journeys Connect trip with knowledge of the inherent risks of COVID-19, and you agree to assume all risks.

To the extent permitted by law, you hereby:

• assume and agree to accept any and all risks related to COVID-19 during the course of your travel with Blue Barn Quilt Co. Inc. and Journeys Connect release Blue Barn Quilt Co. Inc. and Journeys Connect and its employees, officers, directors, and agents, (“the Releasees”) from any and all claims that may accordingly arise during the course of your participation in the trip.
• you confirm that you have adequate financial resources in case medical care is needed relating to COVID-19 and understand the inherent and potential health risks of travel during this time.

This Waiver shall be binding on you, your family, your heirs, and any attorney, agent, executor, trustee, representative, or assignee to the extent permitted by law. You hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Blue Barn Quilt Co. Inc., Journeys Connect and the Releasees for any claims against Blue Barn Quilt Co.
