This is a great park for the community.

My friend, Joan, likes to bring her dogs here to play and get exercise, but I'd never joined her so I was missing out on all the other opportunities there are here for good clean outdoor fun in the sun. There's quite a bit of equipment for children of all ages to clamber about and plenty of bark below to help soften a fall. There are public restrooms, though I did notice that there were also port-a-potties out front - not sure what was up with that. There is a large covered area with long picnic tables and adjacent barbecue grills perfect for large groups to picnic. You can reserve this picnic shelter, which has a capacity of 80 people, for your own group by contacting the NOR Parks & Recreation District at 392-2010 and filling out an application which can be downloaded here http://norfun.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/FR-100-Use-of-Facility-Online-Packet.pdf If you're into outdoorsy sports, there are four lighted sofball diamonds complete with bleachers. There is also a full sized tennis court, a full sized basketball court, and two basketball half courts. There were people practicing or playing on two of the baseball diamonds and on the tennis courts and random people picnicking with families the day of our visit. There is plenty of grass for kids or dogs to play on (please clean up after both groups) and picnic tables scattered randomly about the park. I think I may join my friend and her dogs for their next outing here.

My best friend and I took a break from studying so that we can go for a walk here. Honestly, this park is so nice and I wouldn't mind laying out a blanket on the grass and reading under a tree.

For the most part, the park is kept clean but it makes me sad to see garbage accumulate where the animals swim.

Standard Park's 16.5 acres stretches from E MInner Ave to Ferguson Ave along the West side of Doyle…read morejust to the East of Standard Elementary School. There is street side parking along E. Minner, close to the baseball diamond and picnic shelters. The baseball diamond comes complete with lights, two dugouts, and bleachers behind home plate. There is a small building just West of it which appears to be a concession stand, so I am going to assume that there is either a little league or NOR team that plays here. The setup seems quite elaborate compared to the baseball facilities at most city parks. Just East of the baseball diamond is a covered picnic shelter shading a number of individual picnic tables with a capacity of 80 people and two charcoal grills nearby. You can reserve this picnic shelter for private use by contacting the NOR Parks & Recreation District at 391-2020 and completing an application which can be downloaded here http://norfun.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/FR-100-Use-of-Facility-Online-Packet.pdf The cost is $15 per hour with a 3 hour minimum reservation. There were two other individual picnic tables in the park, but neither had a grill located near them. At first there didn't appear to be public restrooms at this park, but just as I was leaving I saw a building tucked back behind the baseball diamond where there were mens and womens restroom. The women's restroom had 3 stalls, one with a clogged toilet and two with no toilet paper. The water at the sinks works, but there is no soap. There are two play structures one for the younger set and a larger one for older children. THere are plenty of single seating benches near both play structures for parents to sit and watch their kids. I saw a basketball hoop where you could play half court, and there was plenty of open grassy area suitable for a variety of sports. This is not a bad little park, and is probably a lifesaver if you live in the dale and have small children.

However that doesn't make up for the fact that the restrooms here are sub par even by highway rest stop standards. The seats are falling off of their base and expect to be snacked on by mosquitoes at night. The beer and food prices are high but I didn't feel gouged like at a Dodger game. The positives include free parking and cheap tickets. If you want to see a ball game for cheap and don't mind the dilapidated surroundings in a bad area of town than this is a good place to go. I definitely would come back but I think that's just because my love for baseball trumps any fear of potentially acquiring body lice. I would rate the ballpark 2 stars but can give the Blaze three as I'm just happy to have them still in Bakersfield.
