Rich,

I think the strongest thing you can do to get new members is to
recruit through the local dealers. That's the place that you are 
going to reach new and existing ST users.

I would print up cards, posters etc. and see if I could get them in
all of the atari stores in town and in any neighboring towns.
 
 Make sure that your posters mention the BBS.
 After you get some members, I would talk to one of your local dealers
 and Atari about maybe having a guest lecturer come in and do a
 presentation. Maybe you could hold it at one of the stores. This is a
 fairly common practice in music stores. Anyway, if you can get some 
 sort of presentation happening then Advertise that one event in the
 paper. Maybe throw a party and advertis in the science section of the
 paper for the party to recruit people.

 I don't belong to any users groups but these are just ideas that 
 occurred to me. 
 Hope this helps,
