The way our club is set up (ours is a CLUB AND A TEAM to the guy above), since we draw students from about 20 schools instead of one, its hard to find older students interested. We had about 80% Sophomores/Juniors in 2001, but now we only have two seniors, three juniors, and about 8 sophomores. I am a freshman, but have been on the team four years, giving me a *little* more experience than the 10/11 graders just joining this year... (nothing against you guys, you are great) The annoying thing, not to be hypocritical, is the younger 7th/8th graders that got recruited, mainly since most of them do not show maturity and cannot stay on task. There have been about three or four of them that come to meetings regularly and have a positive effect on the effort. The rest of them I believe would have a better time in the FLL team...
