Default Why no Sailplane Grand Prix in North America?

http://www.sgp.aero/ - Seems almost all continents except North America
(and Asia - although one might count Australia as being in Asia) have a
Sailplane Grand Prix - why is this?

We were getting a bid together, however finding a suitable tracker was not happening. However it looks like that is all changing... Then the resort closed so local accommodations for a contest did not exist. But when that changes we will.
