The UCT RFC players dinner was held in this unusual venue, but the response and especially the amount of ladies present confirmed the choice. Andrew Martin had done an excellent job organising the evening and MC of the night Ross McKernan was, as always, in great form.

The Annual UCTRFC 200 Club Black Tie Dinner
was held at the Cape Sun on Friday 17 August 2007.

uct_blacktie01.jpgThe dinner was well attended with over 300 people being entertained by the
guest speaker, comedian Paul Slabolepsky, who is a former UCTRFC rugby player. His
amusing speech also had some poignant moments as Paul recounted stories of his
UCT student days during which he met his stage partner of many years, Bill Flynn, who sadly has passed away
recently. It was fitting that a table of Paul’s former team mates were able to
be present at the dinner. Paul was ably assisted on stage by MC Mike Wills who kept the proceedings
flowing.

building homes for shack dwellers in Netreg on the N2.

Mellon Township Initiative (NMTI), a charity that builds quality brick homes in
townships in Cape Town.
