Hi Gary--

I sat around in Connecticut for about four years waiting for cohousing to 
appear so I could join a group.  Then, I put up about five fliers in town 
saying a group was forming and one month later, I am no longer the driving 
force but have five other families working along side of me.  My only regret 
is that I waited so long to get started.

It takes nothing to write up a flier, post it around, maybe put a little ad 
in the paper.  When people call have them come to a "discussion" about the 
possibility of forming a group.  

Good luck.
