It offers classes for adults teenagers and children. It even had a small arcade room. The area surrounding the recreation center is beautiful. Across the street is a large lake/pond with a water fountain with a walking trail. When you pull into this area it has a tree-lined road something you just don't see anymore. The facility had plenty of parking and was very clean and well maintained.

Good job Port Orange!

I was exploring Ryckman Park in Melbourne Beach when I discovered the charming and historic Ryckman…read moreHouse. In front of the house is a marker that is part of the Florida Historical Marker Program, one of the Division of Historical Resources' most popular and valued public history programs. The markers raise awareness of Florida's cultural history while enhancing the enjoyment of historic sites for residents and tourists. The blue historic markers tell the stories of the people and places that were important to Florida's history and they can be found in front of schools, forts, roads, archaeological sites, battlefields, cemeteries, churches, and historic buildings like this one. Historic marker F-750 was installed in 2012 by Commodore John Barry Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution and the Florida Department of State. This house is a Florida Heritage Site. Funds for this marker were raised by the local Daughters of the American Revolution chapter who sold U.S. flags to earn money. According to the marker this house was one of the first in Melbourne Beach. The Florida-Vernacular style house was built in 1890 of native pine and cypress for Jacob Fox by Captain Rufus W. Beaujean. Both men were original investors in the Melbourne Beach Company, later named the Melbourne Beach Improvement Company. Building supplies for the house were brought to Melbourne Beach on the boat Frost Line. Their was no electricity, and water was from an artesian well. Jacob Fox and his family used the home as a vacation retreat where they hunted, fished, and socialized. Garrett E. Ryckman, a major shareholder in the Melbourne Beach Company, purchased the house in 1908. The Ryckmans family moved to Melbourne Beach in 1908 with their daughter Ruth joining them in 1910. Ruth Ryckman was well known in the community as a private nurse for many years. She left one final gift to the town in 1979, the house upon her passing. In 2012 the Ryckman house was restored. Today the home sits in Ryckman park which also contains the Town Hall, the Melbourne Beach Community Center which was the Women's Club, a playground, several gazebos and the Melbourne Beach Pier. Periodically the Ryckman House Historical Preservation and Awareness Board will open the home for free tours. Even if it is closed you can peek into the window and get a glimpse into the past.
