In this week's edition of the Chester County Press, we attend the commencement exercises of the Class of 2017 for both Unionville and Kennett high schools ... We report on traffic concerns at a Franklin Township area farm ... We cover the budget reports for school districts, and celebrate the work of two local artists ... From graduation gowns to Uncle Irvin, it's all here in this week's Chester County Press.
