The Dr. R. Neil Lowry Grant is a $5,000 grant that honors a public health official or department who has made outstanding contributions to advance the public’s health and safe use of recreational water in pools, spas, and waterparks through educational, safety, operational, and technical programs.
For the first time, the Lowy Grant will be presented at WAHC! The presentation will take place during the Awards & Welcome Reception.
The grant is given in the memory of Dr. Robert Neil Lowry, a long-time member of the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA) and the Recreational Water Quality Committee (RWQC), who influenced the pool and spa industry. For over 25 years, Dr. Lowry shared his industry expertise as a consultant to the government and private industry.
