Tap Legacy Online – A Family of Websites

By

The Tap Legacy Foundation is keen on providing the most complete online experience to our friends. From informative Tribute Websites, and the Birthday Calendar, to Human Resource references, and Tap Legacy Announcements, we have one of the most extensive online presences in our field.

With so much online content, we’ve devised a simple system to let you know that you’re still within the Tap Legacy Family of Websites. Say hello to the Tap Legacy™ Tab.

On any Tap Legacy™ website you will see the Tap Legacy™ Tab at the top of the page. It’s there to let you know that you’re viewing a website produced and maintained by the Tap Legacy™ Foundation. If at any point you want to return to our home page, all you have to do is click the tab, and you will be returned to taplegacy.org.

Remember, if you don’t see the tab, it’s not Tap Legacy™ (facebook and youtube not included).
