Here's how you tell if you're at a recruiting event:

1) Is your team there as a team?
2) Are there potential team members there (including future--1-2 years--team members)?

If the answer to both is yes, you are definitely at a recruiting event (regardless of whether or not you're treating it as one). If the answer to either one is yes, you aren't at an official recruiting event, but recruit anyway if you think it's a good idea.

And what you'd do to get one at another school... It would depend on that school's policy on "outside" organizations recruiting on campus. If you're a district-level team, you should be able to get in a little easier at club days and the like as "district robotics club" (and ditch the "club" part of that as quickly as you reasonably can).
