Often the most committed, dedicated & reliable mentors are those with kids on the team. If you can recruit the children of engineers (& teachers, technicians, etc.), often those parents become your strongest advocate & resource.

At mentor recruitment events, be sure to invite the adults to bring their appropriately-aged kids along when checking out the FIRST team meeting near them.
