Gaining New Members

How do you guys recruit? When you have events such as Open Houses what you do promote your team and inspire the students and parents to have them join the team? We also have only 500 students. What do you tend to do during those events except for presenting the robot with shooting the Frisbees around. I know that teams tend do find middle schools, however, our schools is unique, because our students come from Asia and mainly from China and Kong so we can't reach out to them before they come to our school and we only have 10 - 12 grades. What are you strategies to win students engagement, motivation, and interest throughout the off - season. And with communication if you have team members who do not check often their messages (especially email) do you make any rule regarding it? How you guys also gain engineering mentors and how much experience they should have in engineering?
