We believe the greatest value of YQ is found in our services and we want to invest in our services and make them experiences that will add momentum to our movement. Registration will be completely online again this year!<br \/>\nYou can register <a href=\"https:\/\/iphc.brushfireapp.com\/events\/431869\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <strong>Risk Management<\/strong><br \/>\nThe YouthQuest online registration will include a new liability release. This releases the IPHC of any liability for accident, illness, personal injury, property damage, or other loss caused either by negligence or risks inherent in the Event. It will be a blanket statement, acknowledged by the Group Contact person. The release will also authorize IPHC to take photos during the event and use those photos for promotion. This release will be made available in a digital format, and will require the Group Contact person to agree to the terms before online registration is completed.<\/p>\n<p>As a courtesy, we are also including a copy of a permission form for Student Ministry leaders to use at the church level as another layer of risk-management. The church may download and distribute the form to individual homes and families. We encourage each church to use this form and keep a copy with them on any church sponsored trips. YOUTHQUEST WILL NOT ACCEPT COPIES OF THIS FORM. LEADERS MUST KEEP THIS FORM THEMSELVES.<\/p>\n<p>This is a recommended form only. Please consult with your local church&#8217;s insurance agent and\/or attorney for correct wording and policy to meet your insurance and state requirements.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/eqtc5xllxr7l1mk\/liability%20permission%20slips-%20local%20church.doc?dl=0\">DOWNLOAD THE CHURCH LIABILITY FORM HERE<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>4.\u00a0<strong>\u00a0\u00a0 Copyright<\/strong><br \/>\nTo stay compliant with copyright laws, the following steps will be set in place for the 2016 YouthQuest and Fine Arts Festival:<\/p>\n<p>1) We will not post videos of individual performances on our wesite.<\/p>\n<p>2) We will place signs throughout the event discouraging attendees from placing videos on the internet, thereby breaking copyright laws.<\/p>\n<p>2) During the Fine Arts Awards Show, the recap videos shown onstage will not transmit the audio of unlicensed, copyrighted material.<\/p>\n<p>3) The livestream audience will be able to watch the Awards Show with the selected winning entries, but without the audio of copyrighted material.<\/p>\n<p>5.\u00a0\u00a0<strong> \u00a0Schedule<\/strong><br \/>\nA Friday morning service has been added in place of the FORUMS.
