This is the main issue as I see it- framed in the Dale case:

"The issue is whether Connecticut can sanction or assist Boy Scouts in the maintenance or the furtherance of its discriminatory policies. And several cases have held that while private discrimination is lawful in this country that public support of it is not guaranteed, and in fact it is not encouraged. "

While the cases involving homosexuals tend to be mixed due to the moral repugnance some of the religious justices feel for homosexuals, I doubt you will find ANY case which was a winner and involved the government supplying facilities to a group that was discriminating on the basis of race.
