Default RV-friendly glider destinations?

My wife has talked me into purchasing a travel trailer with her.

At least two of the glider operations I've been to (BRSS in New Castle Virginia and Seminole Lake in Florida) appeared to have RV-friendly camping areas.

I'm wondering how many other glider operations around the US are RV-friendly?

I would love to add some soaring (or at least visiting active glider operations) to our family adventure plans.

Thanks,

Franconia NH has a nice campground (Fransted Family Campground) within an easy bicycle distance - and it's a beautiful place to visit.

Salida, CO was good but tows may no longer be available there. Keystone (Tom & Doris) is well worth considering but I don't know about hookups &c. Air Sailing is AWESOME!

No regular tows at Salida. Manager will let you park on the airport,
but no services.
