Although Allison Flynn is a new resident of Fishers, she definitely knows her way around the city. From knowing the best running paths to attending local outdoor fairs, festivals and races, Flynn is a big fan of Hamilton County, as she grew up in Noblesville.

“I really like the people,” she said of living in Fishers. “I feel fortunate to have grown up here.”

The former bartender is now a manager of Chateau Thomas Wine Bar in Fishers, where she plans events such as wine classes on the second Wednesday of each month, free movie nights on Thursdays and free live music on the weekends; in addition, she hosts bridal showers and supports charities. Flynn said she likes the spontaneity of the job and learning more about wine.

“I find wine so complex and interesting,” she said. “I can tell if wine is fermented and what goes into the wine-making process.”

Flynn is hosting an event June 18 from 4 to 7 p.m. at Chateau Thomas called Fashion Frenzy; the back room of the winery will be transformed into a boutique for a day, featuring beautiful handmade clothing, jewelry, gifts and vintage home décor. For more information, call 849-9463.
