2017 Athabasca River Brigade Privacy Policy: The 2017 Athabasca River Brigade and the 2017 Canadian Voyageur Brigades Society collect data for society business only.  None of this information is shared with any other entity for any purpose whatsoever, without the permission of the member.  By completing this application, you are agreeing to the use of your information and its provision to Crew Leaders and the Brigade Registrar for business activities of the 2017 Athabasca River Brigade and potential placement on a crew.

Actual Brigade fees will be payable to and collected by the Crew Leader, and paid to the "2017 Athabasca River Brigade" at the time of registration of the boat and crew.  Should you be invited onto a Crew, you will have to complete and pay for a 2017 Canadian Voyageur Brigades Society (hereinafter referred to as "2017 CVBS") Annual Membership (also on zone4) and provide the membership (aka Cart or Receipt) number to the Crew Leader for your registration in the brigade to proceed.  Final Brigade registrations of any sort will not be accepted without 2017 CVBS Membership Numbers.

NOTE  (Please READ carefully):

• For one to seven days you will be travelling, paddling 4-10 hours per day, coordinating and cooperating with a group of up to 150 people.  It is the individual paddler’s “ due diligence ” to understand whether he/she is suitably knowledgeable and has the abilities (physical, mental, emotional) to participate in this canoe expedition on the waterways indicated in the general plan. You are accountable for your decision to become a participant and your decision and participation directly affect the members of your crew, as well as the rest of the participants in the brigade.

• The brigade paddling days require steady, continuous paddling. As part of your “due diligence” you need to be suitably healthy. You have a duty of care to assess your health honestly.  Fitness training is recommended as part of your preparations.  You will be asked to answer the five questions on the "PAR Q" form, and seek medical advice from your doctor for those questions to which you answered yes both when you complete this form and the 2017 CVBS Membership form.

• If you have any medical conditions or allergies that we should be aware of, it is your responsibility to include that information with this registration.

• Each participant is responsible for their own personal belongings. This includes items needed while paddling (rain gear, sunglasses, drinking water, life jacket, paddle, sunhat, etc.) and all other gear (tents, sleeping bags, camping, etc.). Personal medication should be with the participant at all times.

• All crews will be informed in the final registration package update on the final schedule for social events planned and other amenities provided. Since this Brigade is part of Canada’s 150 ^th birthday celebration it is expected that there will be additional social events planned by the communities visited.
