Tonight, Yutong Luo, Yuanling Yuan, and I visited the Southams, who wished to donate many of Todd’s trophies, several sets and books to the “Chess in the Library” program. The Southams let us know that Todd would have been enthusiastic to support this cause, yet passed away 13 years ago.
The trophies will be engraved in memory of Todd Southam, and will be given to participants who demonstrate excellence in chess. Along with the trophies, which definitely boosts one’s confidence, we plan to give out a brochure with it with some of Todd’s finest games.
The Pleasant View library opens up this Saturday, (Aug 1) and there are many spots left to register, or you can just drop by on Saturday at 10AM.
