Re: Team Resources
To get a feel for what are freshman can do and what they are like we have a shop openhouse at the begining of each year. We set up our robots and make some displays and we invite everyone interested in joining the team and their parents. It helps the freshman and their famlies get a better idea about what the team is like and it helps us to find out what the freshmen are like. We show movies from competitions, let them drive the robots, and do tool demos with our mill and lathe. It really helps to reel in the freshman and we usually pick up a few adults that help out in the process. I would recomend an open house type event for any team that wants to recruit more mentors.
