A call for local small businesses to tell the community what they're offering.
Attention, North Andover small business owners! Tomorrow is Small Business Saturday -- an initiative to help small businesses in every community benefit from the Thanksgiving weekend shopping rush.

Just leave a comment describing your business's Small …
