Description

Hank Semmern, who is wearing a dark sports jacket and a white turtleneck in this photo, was a past president of the Tacoma Athletic Commission. Semmern grew up playing sports in Tacoma and he developed an appreciation for youth sports as he grew older. That led to his longtime commitment to TAC, which since 1945 has been an enthusiastic supporter of youth sports in the Pierce County. TAC has raised and donated more than $6 million to local sports programs. As a young boy, Semmern played on Phil's Place baseball team, which was part of the golden era of baseball in Pierce County in the 1940s and 1950s.
