While its not in the States, I think my club (Cambridge) has a decent
site:http://www.glide.co.uk/

But I think the best I've seen for attracting new blood to gliding is
the London Gliding Club:http://www.londonglidingclub.co.uk/

Nice website and nice glider port ...

Do you guys ever ridge soar on that hill in the background?

I've only flown at LGC once in a very strong westerly. The ridge was
working well. It was fun zipping past Whipsnade zoo and looking down on
the penguins and wallabies before turning and beating back. You have to
be low past the zoo because Luton said to stay below 1000 west of the
airfield. Such a shame.....
