Thomas Jefferson Offers Law Day Address

As part of its Law Day and America 250 programming, the Washington County Bar Association and the Washington County Bar Foundation held a Jeffersonian Dinner in the Rossin Ballroom at Washington & Jefferson College Tuesday night. This public event encouraged attendees to discuss their dreams for the future of America. Kathy Sabol, the Executive Director of the Washington County Bar Association, hoped that the event would allow for unique perspectives and respectful conversations. Special guest Thomas Jefferson, portrayed by Steven Edenbo, wrapped up the dinner with a discussion of America’s formation 250 years ago. While helping the attendees to better understand America’s political landscape today, Jefferson urged them to welcome different opinions and to avoid seeing those who vote differently as enemies.
