More than 200 Mooches invade Wareham

The fourth annual Valentine’s Invasion and Moochfest is the largest on record
 
The largest crowd, the most food mooched, 50 raffle prizes and more Factory Fives in attendance all combined to make the 2007 Moochfest the largest in Factory Five history.
 

 

In all, over two hundred people invaded the friendly confines in Wareham, while seventeen FFROGs braved sub 30o temps and drove their rides in from as far away as Connecticut to join in the festivities.

 

FFROGs came to share their builds with prospective builders (future owner Ed Zabinski flew up from southern Florida specifically to take part in this event), and old friends came back together as this annual midwinter Open House keeps growing in size.

 

All seventeen “snowmen” were awarded gift certificates valid for Factory Five bucks for future purchases.

 

There are many great stories to share from this event, but for now we’ll share some event photos with you.
