Sarasota-Bradenton Young Republicans

Sarasota-Bradenton Young Republicans Orginally founded in the 1960s, the SRQYRs are continuing nearly 60 years of tradition as one of the preeminent conservative groups in the State of Florida.

We are the Suncoast's premier, officially chartered chapter of the Florida Young Republicans, the state's official Youth wing of the GOP, representing Republicans aged 18-40 in Sarasota and Manatee Counties. 2025-2027 Executive Board Members:
Chairman - Sebastian Girstl (Sarasota County)
Sarasota Vice Chairman - Maxwell Rifkin (Sarasota County)
Manatee Vice Chairman - Tal Siddique (Manatee County)


Treasurer - Ian Christie (Manatee County)
Secretary- Kelly Walker (Manatee County)
Past Chairman - Cullen "CJ" Morgan (Sarasota County) (Ex-Oficio)

With nearly 100 active members from Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte Counties, the Sarasota-Bradenton Young Republicans (SRQYRs) strive to be the region's premier organization for Young Conservatives, aged 18-40, seeking opportunities for leadership development, networking, and advocacy of conservative policies and Republican ideals here on Florida's Suncoast. The SRQYRs were awarded as the Florida Young Republicans' Club of the Year in 2023 and 2024 for our efforts to actively develop the next generation of business and political leaders by driving the discussion on important public policy issues, working to grow the Republican Party, and helping elect GOP candidates across not only in Sarasota-Bradenton, but also the Greater Tampa Bay Region and this great State of Florida we call home.

This past Thursday at the Sarasota County REC meeting, Jay Collins came to speak about what he plans to accomplish if he becomes Florida’s next governor as well as answer any questions our committee had. He was so friendly and stayed to chat and take photos with people. Such a humble man for what he’s accomplished. We appreciate all he’s done for our state as well as our country as a green beret. A few of our own SRQYRs and Polk YRs came out for the meeting.

So everyone is aware of the parking in Lido Beach. The highlighted areas in the photos are areas you can park. Street parking you have to pay through the park mobile app(Benjamin Franklin Drive & St. Armand’s Circle). Lido Beach has a parking lot Benjamin Franklin Drive but it tends to fill up fairly quickly. Carpool if you can.
