Carol,
I am thinking in encouraging the teams I mentor to have a picnic.... I like this idea, do you have info on how it is organized, like who cooks the burgers and get the food, is it something the parents lead, the students, the mentors or the coach ?

We always invite our sponsors to our end of the year picnic, and do demos at the end of the year at corporates site(s), emphasizing the benefits to the students (how many scholarships won, stories of students who have graduated college and gone in engineering, etc.)
