This hard-copy waiver is only required for last minute, race-day submissions if the runner hasn’t registered online as of race day.
NOTE: A general waiver for all other participants is included within the runner registration form. All participants must sign the waiver electronically to participate in the Banff Jasper Relay.
Being a team captain is a big responsibility – but with a bit of planning your Banff Jasper Relay experience can be a great one for you and your team.
