Hey mwz26, sorry for the late reply, but I just saw your post. Camp Allen is climate controlled. I find that they keep the bays a little cold for my liking, but the people there are great and I really like the range.

BTW, when I called and asked, they told me that anyone who has an existing membership there will have it extended one month to make up for the closure. Looking back at my earlier post on this thread, they must have read my comment and acted upon it, because the last several times I went there, it was like a sauna.

Do you realize that they ventilate the bays with outside air? So depending on the season, it will be pretty damn close to the outside temperature inside of the bays when they have the ventilation system running.
