    3rd annual cookout before the open house. All are welcome.

    Here we go again...It's a party!

    Come join us at the 3rd annual Pre-Open House BBQ...6:00Pm June 3rd. Like the past events, it is held at my house (about 10 miles from Factory Five, 17 Atkins Rd, East Sandwich MA 02537) the night before the F5R open house. Family, Kids, even in-laws are welcome. I will supply all the cookout/grill food, though I ask everyone coming to bring something like pasta salad, desert, chips, (you get the point) the rest is taken care of. The gathering has gotten larger and larger every year. Maybe some of the past attendees can pipe in. All people and cars welcome. If you like Factory Five, so do I and that makes us family. Please RSVP below so I know how much chow to order and what you intend to bring. For what it is worth, I am a 10 year Factory Five veteran and a multi Factory Five car owner. My cell number is 508-685-5310 if you need it.

    Jim

    You know how it goes; two days beforehand, the RSVP will pour in...

    Haha I'll try to round up a number and see if anyone can go! That could be a lot of fun. Besides, I haven't been down in the Cape in years.. which is funny cause I work 10 miles from there.

    Jim- please count me in. My wife and I are flying in from New Mexico and are staying about 8 miles away in Sandwich, MA. Can't cook anything in the hotel, but can bring anything from the store. I will give you a call before we arrive to see what you need.

    Thank you for inviting Dan and myself to your home. After close to 1200 miles in the roadster and junk food, it was a welcome change!
