The State Commission on Physical Fitness was
created in 1963 (Chapter 606, Acts of 1963). The
Commission works to protect and improve the
physical fitness of the residents of this State. It
disseminates information about physical fitness,
and collects and assembles information from State
departments and agencies. To further its work,
the Commission maintains liaison with the State

Department of Education, the City of Baltimore
and county Boards of Education, private and pa-
rochial schools, and physical fitness commissions.

The Commission consists of twenty-five mem-
bers appointed by the Governor with the advice of
the Secretary of Health and Mental Hygiene.
Members serve four-year terms and are chosen for
their interest or experience in physical fitness for
both youth and adults. The Governor designates
the chairperson. The Secretary of Health and
Mental Hygiene appoints the Executive Director.

The Governor also appoints in each county and
the City of Baltimore a local Physical Fitness
Commission, composed of from fifteen to twenty-
five residents of the particular political subdivi-
sion. The Secretary of Health and Mental Hygiene
designates the chairperson of each local Commis-
sion (Code Health—General Article, sees. 13-401
through 13^12).
