I think too many people think internet is enough. Like facebookers who post a picture of a starving kid and then blame Suckerberg for not doing anything.
I think if you host events around areas where home brewing is really popular and sort of in the eye of the public, like a park or what not and invite cops or firefighters to get them come down you could get a lot of people to come. Plan it on a weekend or a holiday. Organize it like a potluck or something similar. But center it around home brewers exchanging ideas and flavors.
I think you could get quite a bit to come. Cops and firefighters have a real close knit bond, I'm sure they would get their buddies to come. Then you can pitch your ideas to people who care enough for others to taste their art or at least interested in hearing about other craftsmen's ideas.

Just my two cents.
