About this venue
Original lead listed this park under 'Wading River,' but RiverheadLOCAL news coverage (Town of Riverhead) places it in Calverton, NY, across from Calverton National Cemetery. A July 2024 RiverheadLOCAL article confirms the town's only 'regulation size' pickleball courts are here (three courts, heavily used — about 160 players on weekday mornings via a scheduling app), with the town noting adjacent open space where more courts could be built. A separate 2022 RiverheadLOCAL article confirms these pickleball courts (distinct from renovated tennis/basketball courts at Police Officer's Memorial Park in Wading River, which has no pickleball).
