The Dickerson Community Center is flexing into a new era of fitness and community pride. This week, the center’s weight room is undergoing a vibrant transformation, with both workout spaces receiving fresh coats of paint and brand-new equipment to better serve residents of all ages.
City officials confirmed that the upgrades are part of a broader revitalization effort aimed at enhancing safe, engaging spaces for youth and adults alike. The improvements follow years of investment in the Dickerson Center, which has already seen major renovations to its gymnasium, playground, and outdoor amenities.
While the makeover is in progress, the weight room area will be temporarily closed to the public. Staff anticipate reopening by the end of the week, with updated hours and programming to be announced soon.
Mayor Derrick Henry previously emphasized the importance of clean, positive environments for young people, noting that such spaces “keep them off the street” and foster community vitality. The Dickerson Center continues to be a cornerstone of that mission.
Residents are encouraged to follow updates via the city’s official channels and social media platforms using hashtags like #CityDaytonaBeach and #WorldFamousDB.
