Inherent Risks:

Inherent risks are those risks that cannot be eliminated without changing the nature of the activity. As with all activities, there are inherent risks of injury at 307 Hatchet House.

     1.     Hatchet-throwing risks: Being hit by a hatchet - thrown or held - due to participant or staff inattentiveness, neglect, failure to follow instructions, incorrect throwing or playing techniques, errors in judgment, inadequate training, or purposeful or accidental assault or harassment by a participant.

 

     2.     Human error risks: Erratic or negligent actions by other participants and/or staff; failure to follow instructions, inadvertent inattentiveness, incorrect throwing or playing techniques, errors in judgment, use or excessive use of intoxicating substances, failure to adequately train participants, judgment errors in emergency care, and the lack of medical personnel on the premises.

 

     3.     General facility risks: Slips, falls, or trips due to uneven pavement or flooring, wet, icy, or slippery surfaces, or hatchets or other items left on the floor; falling targets and/or construction components.
