Re: Bringing awareness of FIRST @ The workplace.
If you have a local event in your area, definitely invite people from work to be spectators and / or volunteers. You'd be amazing how much people enjoy some robot competition! I got two people from work excited.

Find out if your workplace is mentoring any teams. If so, network actively with those mentors and see what they think about bringing awareness. You will often achieve more with a team than you will on your own - more reach, unique perspectives, etc. - this is the case for many things in life. Tried and true strategy, use it!

If all else fails - bring cookies in the shape of FIRST shapes. Cookies are always good.
