"Samuel Butts Youth Archeological Park 750 Bellevue Avenue For 20 years, Samuel Butts crisscrossed this site collecting artifacts of prehistoric humans and the bones of prehistoric animals. One of Daytona Beach's leading citizens, educator and an amateur archaeologist, Dr. Butts found projectile points, bone tools and pottery fragments left behind by the Timucua, a Native American tribe, and earlier humans. He also found skeletal remains of a mastodon, which roamed Florida during the Ice Age, according to a April 9, 2021 Daytona Times article. Realizing its archaeological significance, Dr. Butts registered the site with the Florida Division of Historic Resources in 1994. The park was built and named in his honor in 2004 by the City of Daytona Beach. Samuel Butts realized another important aspect of the park which bears his name. It is located in Waycross, the southernmost of Daytona Beach's three historically Black neighborhoods. He requested that the park, which includes a lake and is a habitat and sanctuary for aquatic life and migratory waterfowl, be dedicated to motivating youth to study the environment as well as the area's prehistory, natural history and cultural history. Dr. Butts (1944-2021), graduated from Campbell High School, attended Daytona Beach Community College and Bethune-Cookman College, taught at Bethune-Cookman, served in the Vietnam War, worked on and advocated for community redevelopment, was a jazz musician who played the bass guitar on the beachside with different local groups, including Greg Allman of the Allman Brothers Band, and traveled to play gospel music with Black churches."

"Rose Marie Bryon came to Daytona Beach in 1924 from White Springs, Florida. After graduation from Bethune-Cookman College, she embarked upon an illustrious teaching career in public schools that spanned 42 years. She fought, and won, a yearlong battle in 1948 to equalize the pay of Black and white teachers. At the time, Black teachers earned only half as much as white teachers. An ordained minister in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Ms. Bryon was inspired to build a community center that would help residents remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy and serve the community. In 1947, she organized the Children's Crusade for Christ, which included a Boys Club, gardening and temperance leagues. Originally, the program moved around to different community centers until the current structure was built in 1967, giving it a permanent home. Fundraisers, donations and a loan from the Federal Housing Authority helped make the Rose Marie Bryon Children's Center a reality. The Center operates after-school programs, providing a safe place to learn and play and supplies families with a food pantry. The food pantry contains fresh produce, canned goods, and meat while also providing food bags on Fridays, ensuring children have a hot meal over the weekend. Rose Marie Bryon (1907-1991) raised one biological daughter, Joy, and 30 foster children, instilling in them a love for reading, education, volunteerism and the love of God. The community center continues today operating the oldest after-school program in Daytona Beach with an all-volunteer staff and donations from area churches."
"Stewart Memorial Methodist Church (Richard V. Moore Center) 554 Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard Church officials trace the church's beginnings to 1893 and the Reverend Thomas Hamilton Beb (H.B.) Walker, who was only 20 at the time. Later earning a Doctor of Divinity, he pastored several Methodist Episcopal churches in Florida. He authored many books and poems, such as "The Unknown Man" published in 1915 in DeLand. Walker spent much of his time in France (studying/lecturing), Italy, Germany and Liberia. He was honored with the degree of Knight Commander by the Republic of Liberia for his work. It is not known where the church held its first meetings but in 1895, a small, white building at Second Avenue (now Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard) and Pearl Street was built with funds donated by the Reverend M. L. Stewart, a retired Methodist minister who wintered in Daytona Beach. The building was named Stewart Chapel in his honor. In the 1920s, the original structure was demolished, and construction began on a new building. Completion of the new building was delayed by a storm in 1926 which damaged the partially finished walls. The two-story building, finally completed in 1936, contained a sanctuary, choir room, Sunday school, dining room, kitchen and pastor's study. Stewart Memorial Methodist Church has had more than 40 pastors over the years. In 1973, Stewart Memorial moved to a new facility and the vacated building was sold to the city of Daytona Beach and converted into the Richard V. Moore Community Center. Dr. Moore was president of Bethune-Cookman College from 1947-1974 and continued to work as a tireless civic leader until his death in 1994."
