Re: An Unusually Small Team...?

Everyone has made awesome suggestions of innovative ways to recruit new members. All of them are worth trying.

Another thing to keep in mind when you're recruiting new members is to let people know that--although the program is very robot-oriented--there are different facets on the team that a person can join if helping to build the robot is not for them.

Examples include:
+Chairman's Report
+Woodie Flowers Report
+Animation
+Film Crew/media
+Fundraising
+Etc.

In my own personal experiences, I know that potential members think that the only thing robotics is about is robots, and they feel that if they aren't mechanically knowledgeable (sp?), they shouldn't join the team. Let them know that there is a vast array of positions available on your team, and I guarantee you will get some new members. How do I know this? When I first joined Team Hammond, I was the same way. I thought because I didn't build things, I couldn't do anything. Once I went to a few meetings, however, I got interested in the media-aspect of robotics, became hooked, and the rest is history.

I hope this will help you, and good luck!
