A big and grateful shout out to these amazing groups who give back so much to the Frederick community.

THANK YOU for choosing us once again to be a part of Rotary Magic 💚💚

Yesterday, we welcomed special guests to our office. 🚤💛

The “Rotary Magic” Yellow Submarine , a creative collaboration between the Rotary Club of Carroll Creek and the Rotary Club of Frederick, stopped by after another award-winning season. 🌟

Not only did this fan-favorite vessel help raise funds for the Splash PoinT at Baker Park project during the 2025–26 season, but for the second year in a row, the “Rotary Magic” Yellow Submarine also took home the 🏆 Best Boat Award!

Congratulations to everyone involved in bringing creativity, community, and impact together in such a fun way! 💙💛

💚This Giving Tuesday, we’re asking our community to help us finish something truly special💚

The Splash PoinT at Baker Park began as a tribute to our beautiful son, Simon, a way to keep his bright joy and laughter alive by echoing it in the sound of splashing children. While its roots are deeply sentimental, this project quickly grew into something even greater, becoming a vital community endeavor. It fills a need Frederick families have been requesting for years: a central gathering spot where neighbors can connect, kids can cool off, and our park can truly become a more magical, memory-making destination for everyone.

Today, that dream is within reach. We’re down to the final 10%, and this last stretch is where community matters most.

If this project has touched you…
If Baker Park holds a place in your family’s story…If you want to be part of something that will bring joy for generations…

✨ We would be so grateful for your support today.
Every gift, no matter the size, carries the love, hope, and generosity that make Frederick feel like home. Let’s come together and give our kids a place to splash, laugh, and grow — right in the heart of our city.
Thank you for believing in this with us. 💚
Let’s finish this together.
