Bring a table, some friends, and some signs and hang out for a few hours. You could also do something similar around a local playground or school with the focus being on safety for kids. Same with senior centers. In both cases try to strike up conversations with those who seem interested in helping out and let them know you're trying to put together a group. Or you could give your group a name before you start and ask them if they want to join. Approach established groups in the neighborhood and let them know what you're trying to do. See if you can speak at their meetings. Ask TA to contact their members in your area and let them know what you're doing. Good luck!
