I give permission to participate in the following programs, including any associated travel sponsored by the City of

am choosing to participate in and is not required. I understand that there are inherent risks in participating in the 

programs which may be both foreseen and unforeseen and include illness, physical injury and death. 

I understand that there is a Coronavirus pandemic in effect, that the City will provide the programs in compliance 

with the guidelines of the Santa Clara County Health Order in effect and any superseding orders of the State of 

California with regard to the Coronavirus, and that despite the City’s compliance with such guidelines, the City 

cannot guarantee that there is no risk of transmission of the Coronavirus. I understand that participants will be 

required to use safety gear consistent with such health orders, including, without limitation, face coverings 

and hand sanitizer, and will be required to follow social distancing guidelines and other safety protocols. I also 

agree that participants must be symptom free (no coughing or fever) in order to participate in the program, and 

will not have been knowingly exposed to Coronavirus within the 2 weeks prior to participation in the program. 

Additionally, I agree to ASSUME ALL RISKS of participating in the programs. I agree to DISCHARGE AND RELEASE 

(agreeing to make no claim and not to sue) and HOLD HARMLESS the City of Palo Alto, its employees, its agents, its 

independent contractors, and volunteers working for the City, from any and all liability for injury suffered by me or

positive for COVID-19, or if participant tests positive for COVID-19, I give permission for the City to notify other 

people in contact with the participant (including other program participants, staff, and volunteers) that they may 

have been exposed to COVID-19. In doing so, the City shall not identify the participant or their family by name 

except as required by government mandates.

Foothills Adventure Camp 

Adventure is built on the same tried and true principles as 

our Foothills Fun and Day Camps but developed 

specifically for middle school-aged youth. Longer hikes, 

more sophisticated non-contact games and activities, and 

weekly challenges with the Foothills Camp Staff. 

An overnight on the first Thursday of the session is a must, 

but Foothills Adventure takes campfires and night games to 

the next level. Campers need to be picked up every day at 

the given time. Drop off and pick-up location is at Foothills 

Nature Preserve located at 3300 Page Mill Rd, Los Altos 

Hills, CA. Bus transportation to Foothills Nature Preserve is 

not available this summer.

MakeX Summer Camp 

Design and create your very own project while learning 

how to use dozens of tools and materials! Everything from 

laser cutters to 3D printers to soldering irons to painting 

supplies will be available for use in whatever project a 

student chooses. Each session, students will have a few options 

of projects to choose from and spend the remaining 

time at camp developing and creating their project. Mentors 

will aid in project-building, and encourage students to 

learn as they go while offering their expertise and knowledge 

where applicable. In this hands-on environment, 

students will pick up the skills they need to learn through 

the making process.
