Beats lugging a winch for sure. But I've found that the most enjoyable part of flying is the interaction with other pilots. Hence my interest in the towing.

This probably doesn't help Bill, but I can see the full circle now.  Many
sailplane clubs were off shoots of power clubs and with aerotowing becoming
popular I can see the migration back to the power clubs.

Aerotow is very similar to an ROG winch tow, but Aerotow for sure beats
lugging the winch.

Naturally, the Derstine page roughly titled
"What are the procedures for towing and what must the tow pilot and
sailplane pilot do during the tow?"
Interests me the most. Any one have a link to something similar?
