On March 1, 1999, the Columbia City Council adopted a resolution officially establishing the Columbia Mayor's Council on Physical Fitness and Health. The mission of the Council is to improve the physical fitness and health and enhance the quality of life of all citizens of Columbia and Boone County.
As part of that goal, the Council has created an awards program intended to recognize those individuals who have made a commitment to their personal health or inspired those around them. To make a nomination, please complete the Nomination Form and tell us why this individual should receive the award.

The committee was charged with the following duties:
