Special Black Friday Troy Night Out this week
Shops in downtown Troy will stay open late this weekend for a special Black Friday Troy Night Out, designed to encourage holiday shoppers to patronize locally-owned businesses instead of lining up outside major retailers this year. As part of the monthly event, shops will stay open Friday, Nov. 26 until 9 p.m., with many offering sales and specials for the shoppers.
In particular, 'TightKnit', the independent craft and artisan show held weekly near the Troy Waterfront Farmer's Market, will return to to TNO this week at the Frear Building at 3 Third Street.
For more information, check out the full release below. For a complete listing of all TNO activities and a map, visit www.troynightout.org.

Elizabeth young is one smart cookie, first she creates a $50,000 part time BID job, gets the city council to approve and then appoints herself to the position through the weak sham of an executive board, the girl has no shame. looks like she has all the making of a politician.
