The Classic

We are excited about being invited to perform at this year’s Buccaneer Classic.

The Buccaneer Classic (often simply called "The Classic") has become a cornerstone mid-summer tradition for the all-age drum corps community. Hosted and sponsored by the Reading Buccaneers, this premier event showcases the newly minted DCI All-Age Class (formerly DCA).

Spectators and performers alike highly regard the venue for its expansive seating, excellent acoustics, and pristine artificial turf.

Be There When the Announcer Brings our Corps to the field:

"The next corps coming onto the field has a legacy etched in brass, percussion, and pagantry that has been carried through generations of performers who marched not just for applause, but for honor and pride.  TOnight, we take you back - not just in time, but back to where it all began for us - a Blast from the Past - to the roots of Drum and Bugle Corps as it was back in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s.

Now coming on the field -- the Hawthorne Caballeros Alumni Drum and Bugle Corps, representing American Legion Post #199."
