Barn gay

Copper Cactus Ranch is an all-male, clothing optional retreat catering to gay, bi, and straight men 21 years or older.

In the spring of , Milwaukee writer Will Fellows began interviewing 75 gay men, ages 25 to 84, who'd grown up in farm families throughout the Midwest.

Toronto has many choices for gay folks looking for a night out, and Palloo says The Barn had a difficult time competing for partiers.

He also hopes to stay on and manage the business when it opens under new ownership. Palloo says he is heartened knowing a future hotspot will replace The Barn. The new club will not bear the same name. People are happy to hear there will be something in its place. The Barn first opened in the s, Palloo says.

The nightclub then closed in after its original owner, Janko Naglic, was found dead in his Davisville-area home on Oct 27, The Barn reopened on Halloween in Inside The Barn, staff added a moving tribute to Naglic; his black-and-white portrait now graces the mantel of the first-floor fireplace.
