TAMPA BAY YOUNG REPUBLICANS SPICE UP IMAGE
Club debuts fresh, updated logo at September meeting
September 24, 2009 (Tampa)--Jonathan Torres, Marketing Director for TBYR and designer of the
new logo (featured above), proudly introduced fellow club members and local politicians to the new
brand of the local political organization. Based on the level of praise heard after the unveiling, it’s safe to
say the new look is a sure crowd pleaser.
The new logo features the club’s acronym in a modern font colored dark blue. To the right, a stylish and
modern take on the traditional symbol of the Republican Party.
“The most dramatic element of the logo is the contemporary interpretation of the elephant…facing
forward looking towards the future with strength, determination, and conviction,” said Torres.
In addition to the overall change in graphics, the new TBYR logo includes a line of Latin text which reads,
REPUBLICANUS DUCATUS INCENTORIS HINC, which means “Republican Leadership Starts Here”.
The updated logo will replace existing graphics on TBYR’s website, Facebook page, marketing and
promotional material.
"Our new Tampa Bay Young Republican logo is an outstanding representation of the forward-looking
direction young Republican professionals have for our party. Showing passion for our cause is going to be
the key to our party's success in the 21st century and this new Logo to represent the TBYR brand makes
that happen,” said Andrew Dorsey, President of TBYR.
Prior to starting his own marketing company, Jonathan Torres was the marketing director for D.R. Horton
(the nation’s largest homebuilder; a fortune 500 company) for 3 years. Presently his company represents
6 D.R. Horton divisions along with a few local businesses from the Tampa Bay area.
