About Us

The Governor's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports (GCPFS) plays a vital role in the promotion of physical activity and wellness throughout the state of Louisiana. In 1992, GCPFS started with no money, staff or equipment.  With the appointment of new hard-working board members and an aggressive executive director, GCPFS is now one of the top Fitness Councils in the country.
