As a condition of volunteering, I give permission to the Lincoln Children's Zoo to conduct a background check and drug test. I understand that my position is conditional upon the Zoo receiving no inappropriate information on my background. I hereby release and agree to hold harmless from liability the Lincoln Children's Zoo, its officers, Board of Directors, employees, and volunteers thereof, or any other person or organization that may provide such information.

If accepted as a volunteer I understand that I will be expected to follow the Zoo policies and/or principles and if not, that I will be subject to suspension or termination.
I hereby affirm that the information given by me is complete and accurate.
