2024-25 Season
You are cordially invited you to join the Yale Club of the Suncoast (YCS), an active group that sponsors monthly luncheons at the Sarasota Yacht Club with interesting speakers (including distinguished Yale professors) through the Winter season, and “drop-in” lunches during the Summer and early Fall. Our Club is a great place to re-connect with classmates and to make new Yale friends. Note our joint February luncheon of the combined Yale-Harvard-Princeton Clubs is held annually at Michaels-on-East.
The Yale Club of the Suncoast comprises over 100 members along with spouses and partners, current Yalies and their families from Sarasota, Manatee, DeSoto and Charlotte Counties. YCS also supports our alma mater by interviewing local applicants to Yale, presenting book awards to outstanding juniors at area high schools and sponsoring an annual reception for book award recipients and their families, in order to acquaint them with the many opportunities that Yale offers. In recent years our area has generated a significant number of admissions to Yale College.
Dues are truly a bargain at $50 per year. Members receive discounts on all luncheons and events sponsored by the YCS, listing in our hard copy YCS Directory, and the heartfelt thanks from a hardworking Board who depend on membership dues to underwrite our Club’s activities.
Eligibility for membership extends to the entire family of our Yale community including spouses, parents, and grandparents.

Dues are only $50 per year. For luncheon meetings and special events, members will receive a notice by e-mail and they may go to the website to register.
Our speaker luncheons are held the second Tuesday of the month beginning in November and extending through May.
