Re: Now That school is in
We hold meetings of the veteran team members to try and establish projects for the first part of the year, as well as Senior goals, and finish up things that we need done before the callout.

We have a callout and school presentations throughout September, as well as team interviews. By this way, we really have a good idea of who's going to stick around and who's not quite that interested.

As a PRish type person, I will say honestly that word of mouth has worked best in just getting people to the callout. Our team has gained a reputation of success in our school system, and that in itself brings people.

Short term goals of fall recruitment:
Doable projects
New member training
Off-season competitions
Regional workshops

Long term goals (as I would see them):
Positive team recruitment image
Firm foundation before school year begins
Cohesive team: upperclassmen MUST reach out to new members
