The Sip & Shop Girls’ Night Out Boutique for Swim Across America Fairfield County was started in 2016 by Roseann Benedict and Nancy Carr, longtime friends and Greenwich residents who met 20 years ago when their children were in nursery school. Both Roseann and Nancy are local business leaders and have created this event to bring together and foster the business ventures of other local women. More than 40 different vendors are scheduled to participate and it’s a great event to kick-off the holiday shopping season. Products and services include wine, vodka and food tastings, home décor, men’s and women’s fashions, jewelry, accessories, beauty products and more. Some of the local businesses owned or represented by local women include: BeSensational, Perfect Provenance, COBS Bread, In2Design, MoesMonkeys, Ortensia Blu Italian Adventures, Sabina Furst Desings, Skube, Therese Custom Designs, Tracy Schmidt Accessories, Turq Sport, and Warwick & Lazaro.
