QUAKER BRIDGE MALL CELEBRATES MOMS
BY SUPPORTING NATIONAL MOM’S NITE OUT
Quaker Bridge Mall teams up with Diet Coke, Dove Body Wash, Little Black Dress Vodka, StriVectin, and VISIT FLORIDA, to host free events for moms
Lawrenceville, NJ, May 10, 2012 — Simon Property Group, Inc. (NYSE:SPG), the world’s leading retail real estate company, is once again making its properties the place to be this spring as mothers across the country and in Lawrenceville celebrate national Mom’s Nite Out on Thursday, May 10.
At Quaker Bridge Mall, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in an evening filled with pampering refreshments, entertainment, fashion and beauty services, all focused on rewarding Moms. A recent survey of 1,312 respondents conducted by BSM Media indicated the majority of mothers (58 percent) would like to spend a night out with a group of friends.
“We believe that moms deserve “A Nite Off,” so Simon malls are hosting a free event where they can enjoy their favorite destination in a new way,” said Lisa Bennett, Assistant Vice President of Business Development at Simon Property Group.
Simon has teamed up with several prestigious brands and organizations including Diet Coke, Dove Body Wash, Little Black Dress Vodka, StriVectin, VISIT FLORIDA, Lord & Taylor, Gertrude Hawk, CanDo Fitness, Regis Salon, Sam’s Club, LOFT, Macy’s, Kay’s Jewelers, Hopewell Valley Vineyards, Harris School of Business, The Picture People, Sun Center, and Rider University Radio 107.7 The Bronc to celebrate Moms and their many contributions to the world. The fun starts at 5:00 pm and goes until 8:00 pm. All event activities are free and open to moms of all ages. These events, thanks to an alliance with Little Black Dress Vodka, are helping raise awareness for Dress for Success, an international not-for-profit organization offering services designed to help underprivileged women find jobs and remain employed.
“Quaker Bridge Mall is the perfect venue to thank mothers and celebrate all they do,” said Marian Kapp, Director of Mall Marketing for Quaker Bridge Mall. “Our recent survey with BSM Media indicated that one-third of moms go to the mall to escape their daily routines.”
“Little Black Dress Vodka is excited to support Mom’s Nite Out as we identify with hard working moms and their need for a night out,” said Laura Webb, Little Black Dress Vodka Brand Director.

Originally organized by Maria Bailey, CEO of BSM Media, author and Mom Talk Radio host, National Mom’s Nite Out unites social media groups, companies, local playgroups, mom bloggers and networks in giving moms a well-deserved night off. Bailey brought the first National Mom’s Nite Out to life after watching moms take care of everyone else on Mother’s Day, but never themselves.
“National Mom’s Nite Out is one of the largest cooperative efforts of Mommy groups, Mom-focused organizations and corporations, bloggers and vloggers – all coming together for one great night in support of motherhood,” Bailey said.

About Little Black Dress Vodka
The little black dress is an iconic symbol of simple elegance—every woman’s easy choice for looking good and feeling confident. Just like its namesake, Little Black Dress Vodka is designed specifically to capture the essence of what women want in a cocktail: fuss-free, burn-free, and flavorful, with an eye toward calorie count. Developed entirely by a team of savvy ladies – from concept and product innovation, brand management to legal, production and finance – this is an industry rarity. In addition to its classic offering, Little Black Dress Vodka’s three deliciously natural flavors – pineapple honey, blueberry pomegranate, and black cherry-vanilla – are only 90 calories per 1.5 oz serving. Available nationally, each 750ml bottle retails for $13.99. More than $140,000 has been raised for women’s charities by the Little Black Dress brand since 2007; we are grateful to Cynthia Rowley for her generous Mom’s Nite Out dress donation. Responsible Drinking Is Always In Style. LITTLE BLACK DRESS is a registered trademark ©2012 of Brown-Forman, Louisville, KY.
