Girlfriends’ Boutique And Bites Doubling Shopping Time In Glenview

GLENVIEW, IL — With nearly 30 vendors on site, the organizers of the annual Girlfriends’ Boutique and Bites event wanted to give attendees more time to shop. The fundraiser, which benefits Friends of Youth Services, is scheduled for noon to 8 p.m. Oct. 24, at The Renaissance Chicago Glenview Suites Hotel at 1400 Milwaukee Ave.

Organizers say Girlfriends’ Boutique and Bites is perfect to “get ready for the holidays, enjoy a glass of bubbly, and join others in supporting hope and resilience for all children.” Wine, beer, and water will be available for purchase. The event will feature “fabulous finds” across clothing, accessories, jewelry, home décor and more.

Proceeds from the event directly benefit Youth Services, serving more than 1,800 local children along the Northern suburbs each year “and has the most generous sliding scale and scholarship program in the area to be sure no child is ever turned away from their critical services.”

“If you’ve never been to this event, I think you’ll be delighted by the carefully curated selection of gifts by local artisans,” said Markie Condon, president of the Friends of Youth Services board. “And to our returning shoppers, please help spread the word about this amazing opportunity to get a jump on your holiday shopping with unique gifts you won’t find anywhere else. All while helping the children of our community.”

Event tickets are $25 and include entry into the event, a welcome drink and light bites. Sponsorship opportunities are still available.

Drawing tickets are also being sold for a chance to win four VIP passes to the Botanic Gardens Lightscape show, a golf lesson and weekend play at Willow Hill Golf Club, a pig roast for 50 of your closest friends and family in your own backyard, a photography session by Chicago’s No. 1 award-winning newborn photographer, Kristin Milito, a pickleball package including court time, racquets and balls, and many more in-demand prizes, according to organizers.
