It was a pleasure to attend Unionville-Milliken Soccer Club’s (U.M.S.C.) REP banquet. This banquet was an excellent opportunity to celebrate the achievements and success of the athletes, coaches, and parents who work hard to make the U.M.S.C. flourish. I am proud of what you have accomplished and delighted to see a great club represent our community!
