This has been an absent August for Strictly Saratoga, but hopefully that will change with this week. It’s deep into track season, and the weekends show it. How have you been coping with the busy downtown?

Anyway – some news – and for the bookworm in me, this is really exciting. It seems more and more plausible that Northshire Books is going to be opening a second location in the old Borders building.

Traver’s Restaurant Week is starting up today, August 19th and ends on Thursday, August 23rd. Receive a three-course meal priced at $18.64 (the year of the first Travers race) at many of our favorite restaurants. The most interesting thing about Travers Restaurant Week is that more participating restaurants are located OUTSIDE of Saratoga; in Albany, Schenectady, Latham, etc. Check out the full list of restaurants including menus are here.
Have a great week!
~Amanda,
Amanda King lives in Saratoga Springs, NY like (hopefully) a majority of you readers, but loves travel. She’s been to more countries than she is years old, but is, at the moment, quite content to stay firmly planted in upstate New York. Feel free to follow her on Twitter at @strictlytoga – though be warned, sarcasm does occur…when she manages to actually tweet.
