Roosevelt Social Club
A Private Invitation
 

Membership within the Roosevelt Social Club is intentionally limited.

Those invited to join enjoy reserved seating at our three annual live music social gatherings, along with access for two to our private, members-only events each May and select engagements throughout the year.

Due to the curated nature of our community and the intimate scale of our events, a waitlist is now in place for prospective members.

How the Roosevelt Social Club Began

In January of 2012, the inaugural Roosevelt Rowing Regatta took place along the Hillsborough River, set against the backdrop of the historic Tampa Bay Hotel at Plant Park. It was an elegant outdoor affair, where refined company, timeless sport, and effortless style converged.

The Roosevelt Social Club carries that same spirit forward, celebrating culture, connection, and a certain appreciation for life well lived.
 

Why Roosevelt?
Theodore Roosevelt embodied both vigor and refinement. A member of the Harvard rowing crew, he later helped place Tampa on the national stage prior to the Spanish-American War, departing for Cuba in 1898.

Beyond his public life, Roosevelt was a devoted patron of the arts, a pianist who hosted regular musical evenings at the White House, welcoming hundreds of guests at a time.

That same blend of strength, culture, and celebration defines the club today.

For select travel experiences, the Club provides thoughtfully curated recommendations for transportation, accommodations, and dining, while always allowing members the freedom to design their own journey.
 

Membership Consideration
If you feel aligned with the spirit of the Roosevelt Social Club, we welcome your interest.

Prospective members are currently being reviewed through a waitlist as openings become available.

Enjoy yourself—it’s later than you think.
