Do this.
When I graduated I dropped away from FIRST for a solid 4 years. This year I volunteered at Palmetto and have really caught it again. You think the people you have met in FIRST are great? Wait until you are standing next to an 80 year old woman who's been doing field reset for 15 years, and says it's her highlight of her entire year. That's when it really hits that you'll want to stay involved.
Also, what Phil said. Jump into
The Blue Alliance. It's a great way to sharpen your craft, meet people, and work on something that the entire community uses (
