Got a bunch of squash seeds that I would like to keep until next May
and attempt to grow the various varieties. What is the best method to
keep them? Thanks.

Easy easy! ;-)
I do it all the time...

I rinse them in a screen strainer to get all the goo off, then leave
them in the screen strainer to dry really well. They will dry well
usually in about 2 days.

Put them into a plain paper mailing envelope and label it, then put them
into a large glass jar. The jar helps keep the weevils out of them.

Cheers!
