Find out if there is a Spanish cultural center in your community. They're sure to offer Spanish classes as well as parties and other activities where you can meet other Spanish-speakers and practice your Spanish. The most important thing for you to do is to get out there and talk. Don't be shy - the only way to get better is to practice. Try to participate in as many events as you can. If possible, take a class in addition to, not instead of, their activities.

Practice reading and writing on the forum - you can ask questions, debate, or just play some word games.

Subscribe to Think Spanish for authentic listening practice.

Buy some language tapes and/or software and practice at home.

Watch Spanish movies and listen to Spanish music and audio books to help maintain your comprehension skills.

Above all - practice practice practice. Have some fun - try inviting friends over for a Spanish-themed party or chat session. Even if they're not native speakers, the practice will help maintain your Spanish skills. Can't hurt to try, right?
