Chester County Press April 15 edition

04/15/2015 10:25AM ● By J. Chambless
This week in the Chester County Press, we reveal the plans for the new Lofts of State Street, which will change the look of downtown Kennett Square. We cover an emotional talk by Marie Monville, the wife of the man who killed students and himself at an Amish school house in 2006. We take part in a talk by a Pennsylvania State Police Avondale officer as she teaches lessons about bullying to young students in West Grove. We detail the renovations at the New Garden Township Park, cover the ongoing budget process in the Unionville-Chadds Ford School District, and we cover victories by the Avon Grove and Unionville baseball teams. All this, plus Police Blotter, Calendar of Events, Obituaries, local community news, and Uncle Irvin, too, in this week's issue.
