Recruiting Meeting on Wednesday Night

Greetings to everyone!

Hope everyone is able to stay cool. And school is starting August 8th!  On Thursday, August 4th, all three high schools are having information times for clubs, sports and organizations for the incoming Freshmen. Here are the times we would have to promote Robotics:

• FHN  11:20 to 12:05
• FHC  12:40 to 1:00
• FHHS  11:40 to 12:20

It is important that we have a presence at each school.  We have done this in past and have recruited several students that have been with us for all four years!

Because of this there is a meeting at Francis Howell Central High School on Wednesday Evening at 7:00 PM to organize who is going where and to get robots and other materials ready for the freshman. Dave Harmon and his sons have already said they are taking a robot to North, Mark Krueger can handle FHC, so we really need a group at FHHS. (of course we need others at both north and FHC too).

Mark Krueger will have copies of the video to be shown on the laptops.  We still have some promotional items left from the competitions.

The most important information we need is an email address of an interested student. We can then send them videos, and other information to get them interested in our program. I am planning a schedule much like last year. Our first meeting will be the last week in August.

When we talk with these students we need to explain how this program really goes into high gear from January through February, with competitions in March and April.

Right now Mark Krueger has another obligation for Wednesday night. If Brian Stemmermann cannot make it, Mark Krueger will definitely be there, If he can make it.

It should be a great year! We are a team that continues to improve itself every year, and so let's not let that change!

Hope to see everyone that can make it on Wednesday. The meeting should last no longer than one hour. (students if you are being dropped off, have pickup rides at 8:00pm)
