Sittin Pretti Summer Slam returns to Arlington Airport Aug. 18


August 16, 2012 · 4:23 PM

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Airport will serve as the site for the Sittin Pretti Summer Slam car show on Saturday, Aug. 18.

From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., hundreds of compact cars and mini-trucks will be on display, for at least as many attendees of all ages.

The Seattle-based Sittin Pretti mini-truck club started building and driving its rigs in 1989, and claims to host one of the largest mini-truck shows in the Pacific Northwest.

Spectators can swing by through the airport's west entrance, and proceeds from the event will go to benefit the Arlington Boys & Girls Club on the east side of the airport.

Car owners can register the day of the event for $25.
