ATTENTION:
Due to COVID, The Annual Tafoya Reunion will be postponed to approximately mid/late July 2021, so please feel free to contact Gerome with any questions.
Welcome to Tafoya Cloud!
This is the NEW family hub that interconnects the different web services responsible for keeping the family up to speed on Reunion Events/Updates, and enabling the consistent communication/participation that fuels the success of our Annual Family Reunion:
– Reunion Events/Updates/Blogs (Facebook)
– Photo Archive (Shutterfly)
– Video Archive (YouTube)
– Family Tree (Ancestry)
You can select “Events/Blog” to view details/discussions on the upcoming reunion, or “Photo/Video Archive” to upload/search picture albums/video. Now, we realize that you have the option to upload pictures to any one of the aforementioned websites. However, in an effort to consolidate “all reunion” pictures, we ask that everyone upload to “http://tafoyas.shutterfly.com” as much as possible (reunion pictures only). That way, if someone wants to look up say the 2009 Colorado reunion, they have one place to search.
Secondly, it would be great if we tried to focus blogging (online conversations) to specific “Facebook Events.” That way, when anyone wants to get up to speed on the latest/greatest Reunion comments/feedback, everything is concentrated in one area, and they won’t have to piece together sporadic email fragments.
Next, please check out our “Family Tree” via Ancestry.com. Over the years more and more extended family have participated, and it’s getting much more difficult to keep track of everyone. We’ve officially taken the invitation/eligibility list up a generation to Antonio and Juanita Tafoya, which means the new “1st generation” is now composed of their children (ie Pomposo, Cotorino, etc). We’re hoping that Ancestry.com and family participation will help us fill in the blanks, and get a better idea of what the overall family headcount is…which is easily climbing into the THOUSANDS at this point…
Lastly, if everyone contributes, pretty soon we’ll FINALLY be able to put a face to the name of every single person in the family. In this new age of “Cloud Computing” and “Social Networking” the sky is the limit. And if we can all pull together…and find some time to collaborate…Tafoya Cloud will evolve into something very special…
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns…
