Liability Waiver & Guest Responsibility

By booking with Northrup Events, the client agrees to the following:

1. Release of Liability

   The client, on behalf of themselves and their guests, voluntarily assumes all risks associated with the use of the Northrup Events property and amenities. The homeowner(s) and Northrup Events are not responsible for any accidents, injuries, or illnesses that occur before, during, or after the event.

2. Pool & Hot Tub Use

   There is no lifeguard on duty. All guests using the pool or hot tub do so at their own risk. Children must be supervised at all times by a responsible adult. Floatation devices and swim safety gear are not provided.

3. Property Care & Behavior

   The client assumes full responsibility for the behavior of their guests and any damage, theft, or loss that occurs during their event. Any repairs or cleaning beyond normal wear and tear will be deducted from the damage deposit.

4. Alcohol & Conduct

   If alcohol is served, it is the responsibility of the host to ensure all guests drink responsibly. Northrup Events and the homeowner(s) are not liable for any alcohol-related incidents during or after the event.

   All guests using the pool must rinse off in the outdoor shower after playing in the sandbox. This is essential to prevent sand from entering and damaging the pool system. Failure to follow this rule may result in additional cleaning fees deducted from the damage deposit.
