FREDERICK, Md., Oct. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today the Cowork Frederick Foundation, in partnership with Cowork Frederick, Squadstyle Work & Wellness and SHIFT Work + Play announced they are throwing a holiday party for Frederick County freelancers and remote workers.
"The Cowork Frederick Foundation is always looking for ways we can help Frederick County remote workers and micro-biz owners connect, learn, and grow. We have wanted to throw a holiday party like this for some time now. Frederick County remote workers and micro-biz owners often miss out on a big holiday party either because their company party is too far away or their company is small and has no party. That just didn't seem right. Haha. This is our biggest effort to date and would have been beyond our means. Teaming up with Squadstyle Work & Wellness and SHIFT Work + Play, then adding the benefit for SOS Safe Ride in the mix made it possible. We can't wait. It's going to be a great party," said Julia Ferguson, President, Cowork Frederick Foundation.
"At Squadstyle W&W, we believe in the power of community and the joy of coming together. Collaborating with Julia and Megan on the Winter Wonderland Holiday Gala has been such a pleasure, said Hannah King, Owner & Operator of Squadstyle Studio. "As a remote worker, I understand the comfort of working from home. However, I also recognize the importance of getting outside to network, collaborate, and make meaningful connections. Our coworking spaces are here to offer exactly that and I am incredibly excited about the Gala because it gives an opportunity for all remote workers to come together and experience the feeling of togetherness as we kick off the holiday season together."
"This isn't your typical corporate party! Frederick's community of freelancers, entrepreneurs and remote workers is dynamic, interesting and fun. They are a big part of what makes Frederick vibrant and unique. That's who we're throwing this party for and I can't wait to ring in the holiday season honoring and celebrating with them," said Megan Donovan, Founder + Owner, SHIFT Work + Play.
The "Winter Wonderland Holiday Gala", to include food, drinks, music, prizes, and plenty of opportunities to network, will be held on December 14 from 6 - 9 PM at Attaboy Barrel House.
Tickets, some with early bird discounts and perks, may be purchased here.
A raffle will be held to award prizes ranging from two months free at one of the three independent, woman-owned coworking spaces (winner's choice) to gift card packages from a variety of local businesses.
Proceeds from the event will benefit SOS Safe Ride, the flagship program of Frederick's only anti-drunk driving nonprofit organization, The Safe Ride Foundation.
