Re: how do you get new members???
We have an informational meeting at the end of September or early October. We usually show videos and media about our teams and what we do.

Our school has a TV slideshow that goes on our TV monitors. We post a slide or two on there when school starts and we get an announcement on our morning news during homeroom advertising the robotics team.

A few days before the informational meeting, we do demos in our cafeteria (during non-lunch periods) and we encourage teachers (especially science) to come down with their classes.

We're obviously doing something right, this year we had over 45 new members join!
