We’re thrilled to announce that Squadstyle has been awarded $10,000 from the
Access Granted initiative to help bring our vision for the Wellness Patio to life! Access Granted is a fantastic program supporting small businesses in Frederick as they grow and enhance the community, and we’re grateful for this boost toward our goal. The project to finish the build out of the Wellness Patio will cost around $40,000, so receiving this grant is a huge milestone in making this vision a reality.
Our Wellness Patio project began earlier this year when we installed the traditional sauna in February, along with a changing station for added convenience. With this latest progress, we’re excited to continue building a cozy, versatile outdoor space where members can focus on wellness, connect, and recharge in a welcoming setting.
It’s all part of the broader Squadstyle experience, offering our members a refreshing alternative to socialize away from the usual bar scene—somewhere you can unwind, connect, and prioritize your well-being.
You can check out our earlier posts to see how this vision has developed: here’s the initial concept we shared, and here’s the sauna installation that kicked off the Wellness Patio.
Our Wellness Patio Vision: What’s Next?
Now, with Access Granted’s support, we’re excited to keep the momentum going!
Here’s what’s next for the Wellness Patio:
Adding a 24ft Gazebo: We envision a large, covered area that can be enjoyed year-round. This gazebo will offer a cozy, outdoor space, providing a great spot for both coworking and relaxation—even during the winter months, when hopping into the hot sauna is an extra treat!
Upgraded Flooring: We’re planning to upgrade the patio flooring, making it more comfortable and stylish while also easier to clean and maintain.
Improved Internet and Sound System: Right now, internet outside can be spotty, but our planned updates will bring high-speed Wi-Fi to the entire patio, allowing you to enjoy beautiful, sunny days without missing a beat on work. We’ll also upgrade the sound system to support a more immersive experience with a good playlist to vibe with.
Future Wellness Amenities: Our vision includes adding one to two cold plunges to complement the traditional sauna, creating a full hot-cold exposure experience. We also plan to add accessories to the gazebo, including fans, shades, privacy walls, storage cubbies, and lighting to make it a comfortable, versatile space for any activity.
Our community knows how much we love evolving the space. We’re always listening to the needs and wants of our members, adapting and enhancing the space to fit the lifestyle of everyone who calls Squadstyle home.
A Space for Community & Connection Beyond the Bar Scene
Frederick is known for its strong sense of community, and Squadstyle is here to add a new way to connect and socialize. The Wellness Patio — and our 'Wellness Culture Club' experience — is designed as a social alternative to bars and restaurants, where you can meet friends, unwind after a workout, or simply spend quality time in a health-centered environment. It’s all about creating a space where wellness and community come together in a refreshing way.
Building the Wellness Culture Club Experience
As we continue to develop our Wellness Culture Club events, these updates will add even more value to our space. Our vision is to host quarterly events with live music, wellness vendors, and opportunities for connection and personal growth. With each new addition, the Wellness Patio will be a vibrant part of Frederick’s social scene and wellness culture.
We’re incredibly grateful for the support of Access Granted, and we can’t wait to bring this vision to life with our community. Stay tuned as we share more updates, and thank you for being part of the journey. Here’s to building a wellness-focused space where we can all grow, connect, and thrive together!
