Sorry Ric but, I don't know if a lecture would actually work, but its always worth a try. You never know it might help them realize that they have to get it together.

I would suggest something hands on. Most teams have a very hard problem keeping the new members involved. This year our team tried to keep the new members as busy as possible at the meetings. Before the season we had them build a test bed and the EDU bot. Now that season has started we had them build the kit bot. I think that if you want your members to participate and come to the meetings you should have an activity that every one can work on together, it could be anything from building a few tetras to making the gear boxes in the kit. If you can get them to work on something together and make them feel like they are apart of something then they will be hooked.
