Ken, it has to be exciting
What draws so many students to FIRST is when they see other students their age get excited about something as 'geeky' as robotics. The first thing that pops into their heads is, "Hey, maybe being smart is cool"
One of my favorite quotes from the past 4 years would have to be, "This isn't you fathers science fair" and Dean, Woody and the rest of the FIRST gurus really make that statement true, year after year
