Notice RE: Carpooling to EALT Events

Edmonton and Area Land Trust is not responsible for organizing or coordinating the transportation of volunteers to events held at EALT properties.  If volunteers wish to arrange amongst themselves for shared rides (carpooling) to EALT events they are free to do so but the following policies shall apply to such efforts:

  1. Volunteers wishing to offer a ride or requesting a ride to an EALT event may do so by posting their email address or phone number in the Comments section of the event webpage.  Anyone posting their offer or request shall then follow up directly with the other persons who have made similar posts.

  2. EALT’s insurance does not cover anyone who enters into a carpool arrangement to attend an EALT event.  Anyone participating in a carpool is responsible for their own insurance.

  3. Carpool arrangements are the sole responsibility of interested drivers and passengers.  EALT will not be involved in making or coordinating any carpool arrangements.

  4. EALT does not do background checks on any volunteers for criminal records, driver records, vehicle insurance records and vehicle safety.  It is the responsibility of anyone interested in a carpool arrangement with other EALT volunteers to satisfy themselves directly of any such matters in respect of the persons they are going to be carpooling with.

  5. Anyone who enters into a carpool arrangement to attend an EALT event accepts all risks of damages or injuries arising from the carpool arrangement; and shall indemnify and hold harmless EALT if EALT should for any reason suffer any damages or losses arising from the carpool arrangement.

  6. By entering a post on an event webpage offering a ride or requesting a ride to an EALT event I am thereby acknowledging that I have read this Notice and that I agree with the provisions of this Notice.
