THE Milton-Ulladulla Rugby League Football Club held its annual presentation night on Saturday, October 10, at the new function room at the Ulladulla Ex-Servo’s Club.
The night was a combination of the 2009 awards and the 20-year reunion of the 1989 First Grade team.
The Ex-Servo’s staff did a great job, with the function room tastefully decorated in the Bulldog colours and the meal was first class.
