The history section is inaccurate on championships and undeferated seasons. The Hawthorne Caballeros have many undefeated seasons and many many championships. 68.37.244.220 01:04, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cavaliers Drum and Bugle Corps

The information is accurate because the Cavaliers and the Caballeros belong to separate organizations and thus do not compete against each other. The reason that the Hawthorne Caballeros' championships are not considered here is that the Cavaliers are a junior drum and bugle corps, in which members are not allowed to march past the age of 21, while the Caballeros are a senior drum and bugle corps, in which there is no upper level age restriction.

  • Just to add to that, the two organizations are Drum Corps International and Drum Corps Associates, for Junior and Senior corps, respectively.

[edit] Best Decade

Just to confirm, with five world championships in this decade (2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2006), is that the best decade for any DCI corps?

  • Looking at the list of DCI Division I World Champions, it seems like that would be an accurate statement. Previously, the greatest number of wins in a decade was a tie, with the Garfield Cadets in the 80's and the Blue Devils in the 90's having four wins each. In the seventies, Bd's and SCV each had 3.

Alright thank you. Green Machine 6 06:11, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

    • I just added a section about the best decade, I called it Winning Decade, but someone else may have a better name for it. If anyone makes any changes to it, please mention them here so that way, something important isn't inadvertantly deleted. Thanks. Green Machine 6 06:35, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Championship Years and Repetoire Sections: Overkill for Wiki?

These sections are great but seem like a bit of overkill for a wiki article, IMHO. Seems like they would be more appropriate on the regular cavies site?
