Where in the South East US of A might one go to get a winch launch

The only place that I have ever found advertising an endorsement
training was a soaring club in Houston. *If there are any other
operations that will train a new pilot to winch launch, I have not yet
found them. *They may exist, but they don't advertise.

The difficulty of finding training and the price of land might be why
there are such limited numbers of winch operations around in the US.

There's Cross Country Soaring in Faribault, MN
