Growden Memorial Park, Baseball park in Fairbanks, United States

Growden Memorial Park features artificial turf infield, natural grass outfield, and multiple seating arrangements including original box seats from Seattle's Sick's Stadium.

The park, established in 1960, received its current name in 1964 to honor James Growden, who dedicated his life to youth activities before perishing in the Good Friday Earthquake.

Many professional baseball players, including Tom Seaver, Dave Winfield, and Barry Bonds, have competed at this field during their early careers.

The facility includes four youth baseball fields, one softball field, volleyball courts, and the John Weaver Skate Park for diverse recreational activities.

The park hosts the Midnight Sun Baseball Game every June 21, when teams play at midnight without artificial lighting due to Alaska's natural summer sunlight.

Location: Alaska
