Re: how do you get new members???

In the beginning of the school year, around late september, we have an informational meeting about our team and what FIRST is in general. We then split into sub-teams and have the parents and kids go to each station seeing what each sub-team does. After each presentation the kids and parents are then able to ask questions to the returning students. After that meeting every kid is on our team. Then we go to an off season event (the ruckus) and we try to get the new kids involved and see how they work. We also interview them around this time. When that is over the mentors get together and pick the kids. I forgot to add that before our informational meeting we play many commercials about the meeting on our school morning show.
