Just a brief drive from Jordan is Charles Daley Park. This hilly park has lakefront access, grass fields, a small playground, benches, and picnic tables under a gazebo to get shade.
This park makes a great location to enjoy a sunny picnic, stroll along the water, or bring the family to enjoy nature year-round. The park has a spacious beach, where visitors can watch the sunset or go for a swim.

Jordan Historical Museum
Built-in 1859 to replace an earlier school destroyed by fire, S.S. #4 was large and bright, with huge windows and a carefully chosen colour scheme explicitly designed to encourage attention and obedience. As most schools did, it became a centre of the community, used for the local Ladies Intellectual Club meetings, adult German language classes, and of course, the much anticipated annual Christmas pageant.
