Pool Party-Poopers
Have Finally Met Their Match

Pulsar® System with PRS Traps
99.9% of Crypto & Improves Water Clarity
The NSF certified sanitizer system supplies your pool with a continuous application of fresh available
chlorine at full strength 24/7. But where there's kids, there's also the risk of Cryptosporidium and E. coli.
That's why the new Pulsar® System with PRS makes filters more efficient by helping to
trap 99.9% of Crypto on the filter and improves water clarity 37%!*

Parks & Recreation Specialist for NRPA
from 1965-1967.
Tony Mobley (1979) led the effort to
establish a National Accreditation Program for academic park and recreation
departments.
David Laidlaw (1978) student of
parks' history, and as a park professional
was a conscientious and highly respected
leader in the park and recreation field renowned for his integrity.
Jack Moody (1976) Jack's membership started in 1958 with NRA. He focused
on the broad well-being issues that people face in their daily lives.
John Davis (1975) In 1976 he became
the Executive Director for NRPA, where he
served 10 years.
Robert Crawford (1972) his creativity and innovative ideas won him international recognition and, as its Executive
Director, he played a key role in the development and growth of the National Recreation Foundation.
Willard Brown (1971) served as the
Chair for NRPA from 1972-1973.
Sal Presioso (1969-1970) joined the
NRPA staff as its first Director of Research.
Instrumental in the founding of The Journal of Leisure Research.
Endicott Davidson (1967-1968) served
actively on non-profit organization boards
and brought fundraising expertise to NRPA.
This past year, we lost Mary Grogan (1983), the first woman to serve as
NRPA President, who paved the way for
many professionals to continue serving
the field by initiating the Academy. Several others are legends in the field, and
their names will be forever remembered
in NRPA's history through the Legends
project.
Unfortunately, there is not enough
space in this column to name all the past
presidents, but each left an indelible impression with NRPA. As my term winds
down, I consider what an honor and a
privilege it has been to have served as the
last elected President of NRPA. NRPA has
a great and bright future with the commitment of this incoming Board of Directors,
the staff, and you, the members, to the
overall mission of the National Recreation
and Park Association.
