Re: Recruiting Students
#1 stress that you don't need any skills to join the team, you only need the desire to learn something new. "Don't know how to use a screwdriver/drill/saw/computer ect don't worry we'll teach you." "Not interested in fabricating/CAD/programming, GREAT we are looking for people to run our website/facebook page, design our T-shirts, take pictures and videos, do fund raising and PR"
#2 enlist the help of teachers and have them suggest to students that they check out the team. Go to the art teacher, FBLA, creative writing and stress that you are looking for more than just students to work on the robot.
My son checked out the team on the suggestion of one of his teachers since he did not know about the team due to the state of recruitment at the time.
