COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS: MetroWines co-owner Gina Trippi, pictured above with business partner John Kerr, loves bringing people together at her shop. "Most [of our] events take place while the store remains open to shoppers, and this is where the real magic happens! Upon seeing the gathering, neighbors find out about opportunities and organizations they didn't even know about that interest them," she says. Xpress file photo
