booth presents “Exotic Fruit and an Apple,” a taste of natural sweets from
around the world. The booth’s display of items from seven continents represents the
international diversity of Jefferson residents. At left is the Ethiopia booth, sponsored
by the Jefferson African American Student Society (JAASS), one of several booths featuring
