Re: Recruiting Freshmen
Make your first meeting with the freshmen interesting. No offense to my mentors but I was the only freshman this year because the rest of them got far too bored with talks about robot parts, and budget the first day the we came. As someone stated above, let them do a few simple things with the bot. I even got to operate at the Fall Fury scrimmage in NH. Since then I have not driven but am still very involved. Just intrigue them with the most exciting parts of FIRST and don't drag them down with too much technical stuff until they're already hooked onto FIRST.
