Ex-Stoke, Everton, Man City star Heath sees 'Red City Day' with Orlando SC

Through an official proclamation from the City of Orlando and the office of Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, tomorrow, August 18, 2011, will be declared "Red City Day" in the City of Orlando.

"To receive an official recognition of this type from the City and Mayor Dyer is a tremendous privilege. The team is proud to represent the City of Orlando and we hope that we can bring home a Championship in our very first year," said Orlando City President and Stoke City board member, Phil Rawlins.

He added: "The City and all our fans have made us feel extremely welcome, the players, the coaches and the whole organization will give it all we have to secure that Championship."

In celebration of tomorrow's proclamation, Orlando City will be holding a special ticket promotion at City Hall Plaza in Downtown Orlando. Fans will be able to win tickets to Saturday's playoff game by answering trivia questions or showing off their soccer juggling skills. The Orlando City players and USL PRO Regular Season Championship trophy will also be on hand for fans to get pictures and autographs.
