The fourth annual Lancaster City Indie Retail Week kicked off on Aug. 19 and will continue through Saturday, Aug. 27. This year, 78 independent retail stores are participating, and each will offer a special promotion such as a gift with purchase, a discount, or an in-store event. The stores will follow their regular hours, but they are also encouraged to stay open later.
