31st Annual Leesburg Classic Car Show Cruises into Leesburg on
Saturday, June 3, 2017
American Graffiti star Candy Clark will be the featured special guest.
Leesburg, VA (May 17, 2017) – The
31st annual Leesburg Classic Car
Show will cruise into downtown
Leesburg on Saturday, June 3, 2017.
Sponsored by Monroe Technology
Center (MTC), the car show begins
at 5:00 p.m. and runs until 9:00
p.m.
More than 200 classics, street rods,
and muscle cars (1991 and older)
will be on display, with proud
owners on hand to answer
questions. Individually hand-crafted trophies will be awarded to Best of Show, Mayor’s Choice
and Merchants’ Choice. These trophies, designed and created by MTC students, are highly
coveted works of art.
WINC FM will be broadcasting live from downtown Leesburg during the event.
While this family-friendly event is free to guests, donations supporting the MTC are greatly
appreciated. Students at the MTC, a Loudoun County Public School, can choose from over 25
areas of study, many offering industry-specific certifications through the use of tools,
technology and work experience. Proceeds from the Car Show benefit the Graphic
Communications and Auto Collision Repair programs. The funds provide vital equipment,
materials, educational trips and scholarships.
Downtown streets will close at 4:00 p.m. for car show staging. For more information, including
how to register your vehicle for the show, visit www.lcps.org/mtc.
