The t-shirt would be whatever the school wants us to shoot; I just want them to remember it was a robot that gave it to them.
As has been mentioned, morning announcements are EXTREMELY effective. It is pretty much the only form of communication we had this year with team members besides word of mouth if we happened to see them at school.
From our experience, FLL has actually not been a very effective recruiting tool. Not a reason to give it up, but don't count on it for drawing students in.
The biggest thing to me is still word of mouth. Half our members are in marching band, and this is because kids in marching band always convince other ones to "come along and see the club".

I haven't tried it, but wrapping it in saran wrap then adding flour to reduce friction should work. Incidentally, roughly half of our team is in band too... I wonder if there's a connection.
