Consistently on the late spring solstice, a special ball game is played at the Growden Remembrance Park known as the 12 PM Sun Game. The game took place in Fairbanks, Alaska, and because the Sun was out for almost 24 hours on the solstice, there was no artificial lighting from 10:30 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. The custom started in 1906 and has been played consistently beginning around 1960 by The Frozen North Goldpanners.
