With temperatures still up in the 80s and one more rock show still to come at SPAC – Florence & the Machine on Sunday (September 16) – it certainly feels like summer is still rolling along up in the Spa City.

But for the horsie set, the season came to a close on Labor Day weekend, and the City of Saratoga Springs celebrated the last days of the track with its annual Final Stretch Music Festival, with a big batch of bands performing along the streets for a two-day blast of free music.
