To show our gratitude to our neighbors for their ongoing collaboration during construction, Rowan is pleased to provide regular opportunities to share a meal and connect with each other.

This year, Rowan is helping keep visitors connected as the official Wi-Fi sponsor of the Great Frederick Fair, which kicked off Sept. 12. The fair is one of the community’s most beloved traditions, bringing together agriculture, entertainment, and family fun.

Rowan was proud to support Habitat for Humanity of Frederick County’s annual Blue Crabs & Blueprints event as this year’s largest sponsor! The evening brought together local partners and neighbors to raise funds that directly support affordable housing in our community, including the West All Saints project. We’re so grateful to contribute to Habitat’s mission of building strength, stability, and self-reliance through housing.

Rowan Digital Infrastructure is proud to sponsor the Maryland Data Center Summit, hosted by the Maryland Tech Council (MTC).

This annual event brings together data center leaders, policymakers, and innovators to explore the future of digital infrastructure in Maryland.

Rowan team members enjoyed a summer night at the Frederick Keys game alongside our partners at IBEW Local 24, Frederick Health, and many other organizations. It was a great chance to connect outside of work, cheer on the home team, and celebrate the strong relationships that help power our projects in the community.  We even got to throw out the first pitch! The evening was filled with good food, plenty of laughs, and a great game to top it off. We’re grateful for the opportunity to share experiences like this that strengthen our team and our partnerships.

Rowan joined community members and nonprofit leaders at the Ausherman Foundation’s annual Nonprofit Summit. The event celebrated this year’s grant recipients, who are making an extraordinary impact across Frederick County – Rowan provided two, $1,000 grants that were awarded to the United Way of Frederick and the Empowering Community Leaders Network. We’re honored to support the vision of strong, vibrant nonprofits at the heart of our community.

Rowan was proud to be the 2025-2026 Technology Sponsor of the Women’s Giving Circle of Frederick County, which announced their 2025 grant recipients this summer.

These organizations support women throughout the community who are facing challenging circumstances. Rowan’s sponsorship helps offset the organization’s operational expenses, allowing more donor dollars to be used for these impactful grants. We appreciate the opportunity to partner with the Women’s Giving Circle and look forward to seeing all the amazing work they do this year. 

In May, Rowan employees partnered with the Frederick County Parks & Recreation Department to identify a local park in need of some beautification – and we ended up removing more than 500 pounds of trash at Othello Park! We are always looking for ways to give back to the community, so if you have any ideas, drop us a note.

Rowan was thrilled to support the annual Roaring Lions 5k/Fun Run benefiting the Carroll Manor PTA back in April. Our local team loved the opportunity to lace up for a great cause. Thank you to CMES families for the opportunity to participate in such a great event.

Rowan appreciates every opportunity to partner with Carroll Manor Elementary, whether it be a new STEM Center or an annual fundraiser.  We’re already training for next year!

Thank you to the 75+ Frederick County residents that came out to our recent Community Open House at the end of April.

Our team appreciated the opportunity to provide an update on our first project in Frederick County, and answer all of your questions related to energy and resiliency. Special thanks to the Maryland Department of the Environment for partnering with us on this important event. We’ll see everyone again soon – and if you missed the event, please feel free to reach out with any questions. 

Ron Cramer, Rowan’s Community Affairs Specialist, spoke to the Rotary Club of Carroll Creek in January. As the January club meeting speaker, Rowan spoke about our projects and commitment to the community, and signed a book about construction that will be placed in the Lincoln School Library. Thank you Rotary Club of Carroll Creek for having us!

Thank you to all of the community members that showed up to support our projects. We are truly grateful for the collaboration with so many wonderful local organizations, neighbors, elected officials, and others.

Rowan understands that strong communities need more than just jobs—we need safe and affordable homes, too.

That’s why we are partnering with Habitat for Humanity of Frederick County to build afford-able workforce housing units at the West All Saints Street Project. Rowan is immensely proud to be a founding member of the Carter Club, which recognizes individuals and organizations that contribute $10,000 or more annually.

Our support for the STEM center aims to inspire local students to explore careers in STEM fields, helping them develop the skills needed for the growing digital infrastructure industry. By investing in education, we are not only empowering students, but also supporting local families and contributing to the long-term prosperity of Frederick County.

Maryland Tech Council, Quantum Loophole and Rowan Digital Infrastructure co-hosted this event to bring together industry leaders, innovators, legislators, and professionals to explore the latest trends and advancements in data center technology.

 Following unanimous county approval for the inaugural project, the Frederick Data Center, in January 2024, Rowan announced two additional projects, Frederick II and Frederick III. Over the past year, Rowan has worked closely with local leaders, economic development professionals, community advocates, and other stakeholders to bring these projects to life.

Representatives from Rowan shared updates on these projects and engage in a Q&A session.

THANK YOU TO THE 70+ COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT CAME OUT TO OUR EVENT!
