If no club, perhaps you could form one. Or, better yet, see if the villages (call Parks and Rec perhaps?) will allow you to keep some hives somewhere. They have the astronomy pad and other hobbies (RC Boats/Planes) that they let use community property.

Long term, how about offering classes and educational seminars to help the public understand how important the pollinators are to our food supply.
That's exactly what I do here. We work with students - explaining why our pollinators are so important to our food system. I am glad you appreciate that! Great suggestion.
