DOWNINGTOWN, PA — Downingtown teenager Shay Busza is preparing for her biggest competitive moment yet. The 16-year-old has qualified to represent the U.S. at the 2026 IBTF World Freestyle and Rhythmic Twirl Championship in Paris, France, where she will compete in both solo and pairs divisions.

Baton twirling is more than a hobby in the Busza household — it's a family tradition. Shay's mother, Alysha, competed in the sport and began passing her skills down to her daughters at a young age. That early foundation produced results: Shay and her sister Sterling claimed a gold medal at the 2022 world championship in Holland.

Shay was featured on 6ABC as she prepares for the competition. See the feature here

COATESVILLE, PA — Chester County's Chambers Lake will undergo its first of three herbicide treatments this week as county officials work to combat the spread of invasive aquatic plant species. The lake will be temporarily closed beginning at 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 17, and will remain closed through part of the afternoon on June 18, reopening later that same day once the application is finished.

Chester County Parks and Preservation emphasized that the treatments will not affect the safety of the lake for recreational use. Boating, fishing, and other permitted activities will resume normally once the lake reopens, and no fish consumption advisories will be in effect.

CHESTER SPRINGS, PA — Families looking for a midweek outing this week won't have to look far. West Pikeland Township Parks and Recreation and the Chester Springs Library are co-hosting a Mad Science show at Pine Creek Park, 1488 Yellow Springs Road in Chester Springs, on Wednesday, June 17, from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

The free, drop-in event is part of the Summer in the Park series and requires no advance registration. Attendees can expect live science demonstrations geared toward younger audiences, with interactive experiments meant to spark curiosity and delight in equal measure. The program will be held under the park's pavilion, and families are advised to bring a blanket for seating.

EXTON, PA — Bargain hunters and community supporters have one more weekend to take advantage of St. Paul's Lutheran Church's pop-up thrift sale before the season wraps up. The final sale takes place Saturday, June 20, and Sunday, June 21, with doors open from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on both days.

The event is organized to benefit those facing food insecurity locally, giving shoppers a way to find deals while contributing to a meaningful cause. The setup spans both indoor and outdoor spaces: a dedicated bargain tent outside offers steep discounts, while the interior of the church buildings holds a curated mix of home décor, clothing, toys, games, furniture, art, and additional items.
