I thought you would be interested to know that Riverbank State Park is featured on NBC this Thursday evening, Dec. 16 from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on the season finale of Donald Trump's reality TV show, The Apprentice .

The context is that the two final contestants have been assigned to put together a charity sporting event. One team was assigned to put on a polo tournament at the Greenwich Polo Club. The other was assigned to put together a charity NBA basketball game and VIP reception at Riverbank State Park.

The Riverbank portion of the show was shot in early June. The film crew spent three days continuously filming the contestant and her team as they make all the arrangements for the NBA charity game that was held in the outdoor Skating Rink (that they converted to a basketball court). The game was followed by a VIP reception in Earl Monroe's Restaurant (formerly known as the Riverbank Café).
