Negligent omission

Did YOU and your family Tube the Trinity at the Rockin the River event on the Trinity River? 

Did you find it odd you had to sign the following to do so? 

Notice 'the District' isn't responsible for their own negligence or omission.  WHO is?

Good thing someone tested the water.
