Close Encounter advertised as "Sheboygan's Only 'Real' Gay Bar" when it opened in June 1986, being welcomed in In Step's "Steppin' Out" column in the June 26-July 9, 1986 issue.

But the bar was short-lived. It was last listed in In Step's "Guide" in the December 1986 issue.

More information about this business is welcomed from anyone who can contribute it.
