79 Years of Excellence

The Hawthorne Caballeros are a world-famous drum corps located in Hawthorne, New Jersey.

Founded in 1946, the Hawthorne Caballeros have won a number of titles; 10 DCA World Championships, 16 American Legion National Titles, 17 National Dream Contests, and 43 New Jersey State American Legion Titles. We have completed undefeated seasons, consecutively in 1984 and 1985. In 1989 the fans voted the Hawthorne Caballeros their favorite all-age drum corps of all time during DCA's 25th anniversary celebration. 

Our goal is to provide an environment for our members, who range in age from high school students to full time employed adults and beyond, that fosters continued education in the competitive field of the marching arts.
