Yorktown Loves Yu-Gi-Oh! January 31, 2024

James (Jimmy) participates in weekly Yu-Gi-Oh! card tournaments at 3rd Universe in Croton-on-Hudson. A staff member from IAHD typically brings Jimmy to his tournaments, but that is where their involvement ends. When Jimmy arrives at 3rd Universe, he gets his game face on and is immediately enveloped into the world of Yu-Gi-Oh! among the other local players. This has become a familiar place where James can be at ease and participate in one of the activities that brings him immense joy. Thank you to 3rd Universe and all those who help make this a weekly reality for Jimmy, especially Tarrytown DSP Najee, who usually accompanies him.

Go Jimmy!
