Look for existing groups who do seasonal activities:
I taught a dragon boat team to do "Nordic Walking" and provided them with poles. They began walking when their paddling season ended and walked all winter until the new paddling season started. They were well motivated and there was usually good attendance. We also often added a social component after the walk like dinner, tea, or a snack.
