New Rochelle to Fete Ray Rice Saturday

Baltimore Ravens running back—and New Rochelle native—Ray Rice will be at New Rochelle City Hall Saturday for a celebration of his team's victory at Sunday's Super Bowl.

The celebration, to which the entire community is invited and encouraged to wear purple, will be at 10:30 a.m. Saturday on the front steps of City Hall.

“So many residents of New Rochelle are eager to demonstrate their admiration for Ray’s accomplishments. This community rally will be an opportunity for all of us to offer our congratulations to our hometown hero,” said Mayor Noam Bramson.
