NDP Alumnae Kick Off Holiday Season in Style at Sip & Shop

Notre Dame Prep alumnae kicked off the holiday season in style at a special Alumnae Sip & Shop on Wednesday, November 12. The event was graciously hosted at Laissez Faire & Company, a premier women's clothing and accessory boutique in Cockeysville owned by the mother-daughter duo Cathy Cotterino Johnson '87 and Brittany Johnson Phelps '04. For three hours, the boutique buzzed with an evening of friendship and festive shopping. NDP sisters and friends mingled and caught up while enjoying complimentary wine and light refreshments.

The event was a perfect opportunity to find unique gifts for the holidays, with alumnae browsing the boutique's curated collection. Among the guests was Alumnae Board Member Sheri Miller ’82, who was there sharing her book, By Your Side. As an added festive touch, all attendees were entered into a raffle for a fantastic NDP Swag Bag.

A heartfelt thank you goes to Cathy and Brittany for welcoming their fellow alumnae and for their incredible generosity. The hosts generously donated 15% of all proceeds from the evening's purchases to benefit Notre Dame Prep. It was truly a wonderful way to connect and celebrate the start of the Christmas season.
