Pick-up basketball @ Riverview Park
Details
Wanted to do this for a while and decided to try this now since we're doing a walk later Monday evening nearby, and this basketball court is right next to where we'll start that.
If you're interested in playing basketball but the timing doesn't work for you, leave a comment below so I can get an idea of how much interest there is for this. If you have suggestions for other spots that are good for playing, put that in the comment too.
There probably won't be many people around the start (4:15) but probably enough for a full court game by 6:30. I'll leave at 6:30 for the walk, but you're welcome to keep playing as long as you want. Everyone is invited to my events, so don't worry about whether or not you can come. I won't check my phone much after the event starts since I'll be talking to people, so if you can't find us/arrive late, check the comments (scroll down past the bottom of this description for comments, and don't send dms since I won't see those).
GETTING THERE
VTA has 4 routes that stop pretty much right in front of the road leading to the court: 20 (get off at Orchard Station), ACE Brown (get off at River Oaks & 1st), Green Line (get off at River Oaks Station, doesn't show up in table but shows up in dropdown for origin and destination), and Blue Line (get off at River Oaks Station, also doesn't show up in table but shows up in dropdown for origin and destination).
BART's Orange and Green lines also connect directly with VTA's 20 (see above) at the Milpitas station, so you can also transfer from BART to VTA and get to our spot.
There's plenty of street parking around the area and a parking garage, so you can park where you want.
