Daytime Dining leader teams up with "Cook'N Bacon" to giveaway free brunch for a year for two lucky pairs

BRADENTON, Fla., Aug. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Breakfast is served. First Watch is partnering with Team USA's first 2024 Paris Olympic Games medal winners, divers Kassidy Cook and Sarah Bacon, to give away a year of free brunch for two lucky duos.

While the pair's last names and clever hashtag, #breakfastisserved, originally caught the restaurant's attention, it was the synchronization with First Watch's culture that solidified the partnership. First Watch is known for its "You First" commitment to employees and customers, and specifically its core values of "Roll Up Your Sleeves," "Be Kind" and "Stand Shoulder to Shoulder."

"We admire Kassidy and Sarah for their commitment to working hard with infectious positivity, resilience and grit," said Laura Sorensen, Chief People Officer at First Watch. "We believe that a day well spent starts with the company you keep … and they certainly keep good company! These athletes literally 'Stand Shoulder to Shoulder' on the diving board – a value we hold dear as our teams work together to make days brighter for customers at every opportunity."

The Olympians, known affectionately as "Cook'N Bacon," won Silver in the women's 3-meter synchronized springboard event, taking home America's first medal of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

Now, two lucky winners (and a friend each) will win free First Watch for a year.* Thursday, August 29 through Tuesday, September 3, fans who follow @FirstWatch on Instagram can enter to win by tagging the "Cook" to their "Bacon" on this post – the person they are most in "sync" with.

First Watch has been fueling athletes for years. The menu takes an elevated approach to traditional breakfast, brunch and lunch offerings made to order using fresh ingredients in a kitchen without fryers, microwaves and heat lamps. To uncover the best ingredients, the restaurant is guided by a "Follow the Sun" food ethos to source fresh ingredients, wherever and whenever they are in season.

The restaurant has a long history of supporting athletes. The Cook'N Bacon partnership was developed in partnership with the premiere sports sponsorship platform for professional women athletes, Parity, and highlights First Watch's continued commitment to support women-athletes.
