I certify that my child and myself are physically fit and sufficiently prepared for participation in the activity and that there are no health-related reasons or issues which would preclude the participation of myself or my child in the activity. I have not been advised of any reason which would limit my child or myself in participating in the activity.

Assumption of the Risk and Waiver of Liability Relating to Coronavirus/COVID-19

The novel coronavirus, 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 and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people. Friends of Israel Scouts (Tzofim) and the Shvatim have put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19; however, The Tzofim and the Shvatim cannot guarantee that you or your child(ren) will not become infected with COVID-19. Further, participation in the Tzofim and the Shvatim meetings and activities could increase your risk of contracting COVID-19.

READ CAREFULLY BEFORE SIGNING

By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by participation; and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. I understand that there is a risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at The Tzofim and Shvatim meetings and activities.

I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any injury to myself or my child(ren) (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I may experience or incur in connection with my participation The Tzofim and the Shvatim meetings and activities. On my behalf, I hereby release, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless the Tzofim and the Shvatim, their employees, volunteers, and representatives, of and from the Claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating thereto. I understand and agree that this release includes any Claims based on the actions, omissions, or negligence the Tzofim and the Shvatim, their employees, volunteers, and representatives, whether a COVID-19 infection occurs before, during, or after participation at The Tzofim meeting and activities.

By signing this document, I agree that if I am exposed or infected by COVID-19 during my participation in the Tzofim meetings and activities, then I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against the parties being released on the basis of any claim for negligence.

I agree that, to the best of their ability, my child will follow all Tzofim and Shvatim safety guidelines and will attempt to practice safe social distancing and clean hygiene at all times during their participation.

Rules and Procedures

During the month of March 2020, as a response to the Coronavirus crisis, we had to adapt to a new reality and move our Peulot online. Recently, a gradual process of returning to normalcy has begun, with an emphasis on social distancing and maintaining public health. These days we are witnessing the reopening of some of the educational institutions and various activities in the community. We have used these to guide us and help us assess the opening of the year for Shevet Tapuz, paying close attention to education, health, and safety. The procedures detailed in this document are temporary and valid until it is possible to return to our normal Peulot. They will be constantly updated in accordance with the CDC’s recommendations.

Note if the local or state authorities will tighten the guidelines we will act accordingly, however if the guidelines will be softened, a decision will be made in cooperation with the Tzabar leadership team.

General
  • Shevet Tapuz will make its best effort to continue with consistent, valuable, and diverse Peulot.
  • Shevet Tapuz will follow the procedures and the guidance of local government institutions, as well as instructions from the leadership at Tzabar, while strict adherence to the CDC guidance.
  • Any Chanich, Madrich, volunteer, or any person who attended a Peula in the last 14 days and has been confirmed COVID-19 must report to the head of the Shevert Maya or Dorit.
  • Any Chanich, Madrich, volunteer, or any person who has been in close contact with someone confirmed COVID-19 must refrain from attending Peulot for 14 days since exposure.
Chanich confirmed Covid-19

If a Chanich is confirmed Covid-19, the following will be done:

  • It is incumbent to report their case up to 14 days after the infection - report to Maya or Dorit (Rosh Shevet).
  • All parents of the Shevet and specifically the Chanich’s group will be notified of the case, without disclosing names.
  • The group’s Chanichim and Madrichim will not be able to have a Peula for the following 14 days since the infection.
Transition to Online Activity

In the case of a Covid outbreak in the Shevet, we will continue group Peulot online. The Madrichim will transition to create effective online Peulot, based on the knowledge and experience gained during last year’s Peulot.
