April 13th Membership Meeting

11:30 – Social time and lunch buffet
12:00 – TAC meeting
 
During the club business portion of our meeting, we will have some time for “table talk”.  The focus of the table talk will be the open positions for the TAC leadership that need to be filled.  We will be asking each table to brainstorm members that you think would be a good in the five key leadership positions (or maybe you, yourself, are willing to step into one of the positions). 
 
The leadership of the organization is important and it is vital that we have members that are able to serve in the leadership positions.  Our annual elections will be held during the June meeting.  The positions that need to be filled are:
  • President 2022-2023
    • Preside at all meetings of the Board of Directors and members. Provide general supervision over the TAC’s affairs. Enforce the organizations bylaws and rules and regulations.
  • Vice President – Will advance to be President 2023-2024. Three year term – Vice President, President, Past President.
    • Assist the President with the functioning of the TAC and assume their duties when they are absent.
  • Treasurer – During this election will be a one year term, but normally would be a two year term elected in the even years.
    • Provide oversight and consultation regarding the financial matters of the TAC. Present financial statements to Board of Directors and members, as needed.
  • Secretary – two year term
    • Take and keep minutes of all Board of Directors and member meetings.
  • Membership Committee Chair.
    • Maintain and add to TAC‘s membership.
Following the meeting on Thursday the board will be reaching out to the suggested members regarding the positions.  Please start thinking about who you think would be good for these key positions.

Dave Tate Memorial
From Bradley Tate (Dave's son)

David Tate took his final trot around life’s bases on March 22, 2023. An inspirational coach, compassionate teacher, and dedicated husband and father, Dave passed at home after a year-long battle with cancer.
 
Dave’s first at bat began in Lakewood, WA on July 30, 1955, when he was born to Adron and Faye Tate. Early education began at Tyee Park and Woodbrook, leading to his graduation from Clover Park High School in 1973. Dave would continue his higher education at Fort Steilacoom Community College, Washington State University, and finally Pacific Lutheran University for his MA in 1985. A gifted baseball player, Dave played throughout his educational years, starting in the second grade under the coaching of his father, and ultimately finishing his baseball career playing second base at Fort Steilacoom.
 
Dave’s passion for the sport of baseball continued into a successful coaching career, including a 20-year coaching stint at Rogers High school, leading the Tacoma / Pierce County All Star Baseball team with Tacoma’s sister city in Kitakyushu, Japan, and becoming his son’s little league coach for almost a decade.

Hardwood Classic 2023
The WIAA State Basketball Championship for 3A and 4A will be held at the Tacoma Dome March 1 - 4.  The WIAA Hardwood Classic Tournament Host program will be happening again and is looking for hosts.  The TAC has budgeted to host 2 teams.  Tony Anderson is taking the lead for one team and we are in need of a lead for the second team.  Please contact Karyn Siegrist (KarynTAC@gmail.com) if you are interested in representing the TAC as a tournament host, or helping to host our two teams.
 
What is a Tournament Host?
A Host is a person, family, company or local business that supports a high school basketball team who makes it to the WIAA State Championship tournament and treats them like family.  The Host remains with their team for the duration of the team’s participation in the State Basketball Championship.
 
What is a Tournament Host expected to do?
A Host is required to invest time and a small amount of money during the annual March tournament. You and/or a designated representative must attend the pre-tournament meeting that is held in the late afternoon on the Monday prior to the tournament to receive your assigned team as well as review pertinent information and expectations. You or a designated representative are expected but not required to attend each game that your team plays in. When your team takes the court, as a “Tournament Host” you will have 4 courtside seats at the end of your team’s bench. As a host, your responsibilities may include providing information as it relates to suggesting a practice facility, places for the team to eat and provide any information about our beautiful city should you be called upon.  It is required that you meet your team and introduce yourself as their host Tuesday night at the Dome “Walk Around”.  At this time you will present your team and staff with tournament programs (No More than 20).  In addition, but not required you may choose to give your team a goodie bag with treats, water or anything you seem fit to commemorate their trip to the State Tournament. Hosting a lunch or dinner with the team is also sincerely appreciated.  We can provide a list of a few local restaurants that have discounted pricing for the teams.  Because you are considered a part of the team you are expected to behave, dress and engage in an appropriate manner at all times and cheer your team on for victory. 
 
What do you receive for being a Host?
4 Passes for the duration of the tournament. Ability to sit courtside with your team when they
take the court and most importantly A BIG THANK YOU! When people from around our state
come to Tacoma we want them to remember what a great place it was with amazing people.

John Anderson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 18, 2022.

John S. Anderson passed away on September 3rd, 2022, at the age of 88, following complications from Parkinson's Disease. He was born on December 27th, 1933, in Kent WA, to John and Dorothy Anderson.

John grew up in O'Brien and graduated from Kent High School in 1951. He attended University of Washington and Central Washington University before enlisting in the Navy during draft time. After several Navy stations, he and his high school sweetheart, Myrna, married on July 31, 1954. They spent one year in Detroit, Michigan for John's last year of Naval service before returning to Washington for John to finish college. He earned a bachelor's degree in education from Pacific Lutheran University and a master's degree in school administration from University of Puget Sound. With help from his friend Willie Calhoun, John built their home in Sumner, WA, and established residence in 1960. John had a successful 35-year career as a teacher, coach, and administrator in the Sumner School District.

John was the head football coach for 16 years at Sumner High School, leading teams to a record of 114-52-6. He won five league championships, two state championships (1975 and 1977), was named State Coach of the Year in 1977, and was inducted as a member of the Washington State Coaches Hall of Fame in 1988.

John also served 16 years as the Sumner School District Athletic Director. He was voted the 1988 Washington State Athletic Director of the Year and was inducted as a member of the Washington State Athletic Director Hall of Fame in 1996. During his years as the Athletic Director he also found time to serve for 8 years as a member of the WIAA Executive Board.

John was an active member of Sumner Rotary, serving as Club President in 1994 and later serving as Assistant District Governor for three years. He was most recently honored with a Rotary Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his service to his community and Rotary District 5020. He was a true servant leader and lived his life according to the Rotary motto, "Service Above Self."

In addition to Rotary and his highly successful career as a teacher, coach, and administrator, he was an exceptionally talented wood craftsman. He built a multitude of beautiful fine furnishings that his family will continue to value, relish and appreciate as a part of his legacy. He was an avid snow and water skier and taught all his kids to ski. In their retirement, John and Myrna enjoyed many cruise ship travels throughout the world along with sunshine weeks in Arizona, Central Oregon, and Cabo San Lucas.

John is survived by his wife, Myrna, son Brian (Michelle), son Eric (Nancy), daughter Kerri, brother Robert (Penny), 8 grandchildren, and 4 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents John and Dorothy, son Craig, son Kevin, daughter-in-law Michelle, and son-in-law Dean.

A celebration of life will be held at 1:00 pm on Saturday, October 1st, at the Swiss Sportsmen's Club in Bonney Lake, WA. An additional memorial service will be held at 2:00 pm on Sunday, October 2nd at Mt. View Lutheran Church in Edgewood, WA.

Donations in John Anderson's name can be made to the Kevin Anderson Scholarship fund at Sumner High School, Sumner Rotary Club, Mt. View Lutheran Church, or a personal choice of fund in his memory.

John was the most patient, generous, calm, and kind man who cared deeply about his family, friends, and community. He will be greatly missed.
