Saving Male Pollen for later use?

I am wondering if there was a way to freeze or freeze dry the male pollan for a later batch of squash. I have noticed that I am getting so far all females and because no males have come in yet I am losing them because they can't be pollinated by a male.

So if I can save the male flower or just the pollen safely then when I start a new plant of squash if I only get females at first I have my pollen on hand to get started with.

Do you think it is possible, and if so which way would be the best so that the pollen is not destroyed in any way.
