This sponsorship allowed the corps to purchase "new" uniforms; 100% wool <a href="/wiki/Military_surplus" title="Military surplus">U.S. Army surplus</a> dress shirts and pants dyed midnight blue, worn fully buttoned and with <a href="/wiki/Puttees" class="mw-redirect" title="Puttees">puttees</a>. The following season, they were happy to accept the gift of hand-me-down uniforms from the General George Bell Post's corps, until discovering that the "new" new uniforms were even hotter wear for marching in summer parades. The corps' association with the Bell Post corps also led to their getting drum corps instructors. Initially, Don Warren had arranged for instructors from the Quinlan & Fabish Music Company to teach music to the members. After seeing the Bell Corps rehearsing, he decided that it would be more relevant to have instruction on drum corps, so Johnny Line and Art Gariekes were signed on to teach Kaz-712 about drill and drum corps competition.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Cavaliers_2004_dci_world_championships.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b8/Cavaliers_2004_dci_world_championships.jpg" decoding="async" width="239" height="220" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="239" data-file-height="220" /></a><figcaption>The Cavaliers, 2004.</figcaption></figure> <p>1950 was a big year for the corps. They entered the world of field competition for the first time, they took the name of Chicago Cavaliers, and green became their color. For competition, the corps learned to do more fancy marching than parading down the street and a whole musical program. While many corps of the time had only their locale or their sponsor as the name of their corps, the youngsters in the Kaz-712 corps wanted a cool name, like the Austin Grenadiers, one of Chicago's top corps of the day. When a new cigarette brand was introduced with much fanfare, the corps members' reaction was unanimous. They adopted the Cavalier name and the logo of the cigarette brand as the corps' logo (the "Standing Man" at the top of this page), they all ordered pins of the Cavalier logo from the cigarette company, and the K-712 corps became the Chicago Cavaliers. For entering field competition, new uniforms were needed that were cooler than the old wool ones in every meaning of cool. The members designed the new uniforms with black pants, black shakos with white trim, a belt with a big silver buckle, and satin blouses in a truly unique color---chartreuse. Then the uniform maker informed them that, after a summer's wear, their sharp, chartreuse uniforms would be sun-bleached to pastel blandness, and he recommended that they chose a color that would last--- Kelly green.<sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>After being an also-ran for their first two seasons of field competition, the Cavaliers won their first contest in 1952. At the Spectacle of Music in South Milwaukee, the Cavaliers were winners in Class B, while all the corps they considered to be "Big Corps' were in Class A, but then, they won the Iowa State Fair contest, going on to finish in seventh place at their first American Legion Junior National Championship in <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>, where they topped all midwestern corps and won the General Effect caption. Although the corps was becoming a midwest powerhouse, the Cavaliers were far behind the top corps in drumming. In 1955, the staff added Frank Arsenault, considered to be the best <a href="/wiki/Drum_rudiment" title="Drum rudiment">rudimental drummer</a> of his day, to work with the drummers. In 1956, the Cavliers had risen to the number one ranking in the midwest, but could only manage a third place finish at VFW Nationals. But in 1957, after trading victories with the <a href="/wiki/Madison_Scouts_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="Madison Scouts Drum and Bugle Corps">Madison Scouts</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Belleville,_Illinois" title="Belleville, Illinois">Belleville</a> Black Knights, the Cavaliers won both the Illinois State American Legion and VFW titles, then won their first VFW National title in <a href="/wiki/Miami" title="Miami">Miami</a>. Their win broke the stranglehold that the <a href="/wiki/East_Coast_of_the_United_States" title="East Coast of the United States">East Coast</a> corps had held on the national championships, but it was considered by those same East Coast corps to be just a fluke, even when the Cavies repeated as VFW champions two years later in <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles" title="Los Angeles">Los Angeles</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>By 1960, the Cavaliers had become a true national powerhouse drum corps, but that did not make things easy. Money was short, and the American Legion Kosciusko Post and the Chicago's Own VFW Post tried to meet the corps' financial needs, but the banning of <a href="/wiki/Bingo_(US)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bingo (US)">bingo</a> and other, similar fundraisers by the State of <a href="/wiki/Illinois" title="Illinois">Illinois</a> was an almost crippling blow. The corps members took a part of the fund-raising on themselves, sponsoring a "Family Fun Night", complete with clowns, games, food at the "The Cavalier Cafe", and a chance to hit Don Warren in the face with a whipped cream pie; for an investment of only $39, they raised $1000. The corps' level of competition made recruitment difficult, especially after 1959, when turnover was half again the norm. During the 1960 season, the Cavies maintained their status as a national powere, even though they won no national titles. Part of the solution to the problems of money and recruiting was the signing on of an new sponsor; in 1961, the Chicago's Own VFW was replaced by the Park Ridge VFW Post 3579, the start of the Cavaliers' move from being a "city" corps to being "suburban". Things did not look too bright when the Cavies were beaten in a local "standstill" competition, with "experts" declaring the demise of the "Green Machine". Then the season began, and the Cavaliers won, and they won, and they won again, and again, and again. By the time it was over, the Cavaliers were undefeated for the 1961 season, had won twenty-five shows in a row dating from 1960, and would win twenty-nine contests in a row over a period of twenty-three months before losing on June 17 in <a href="/wiki/Spring_Valley,_Illinois" title="Spring Valley, Illinois">Spring Valley, Illinois</a>. The Cavaliers would win VFW national three years in a row, 1961–63, and five in seven years from the first in 1957. In 1963, the corps would travel to Canada for the Toronto Optimist's "International" competition, later take a train to <a href="/wiki/Seattle" title="Seattle">Seattle</a> to VFW Nationals, and would march members from as far away from Chicago as <a href="/wiki/Rockford,_Illinois" title="Rockford, Illinois">Rockford</a> and <a href="/wiki/Milwaukee" title="Milwaukee">Milwaukee</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1964, the Cavaliers added mellophones and contrabasses to their horn line. The 1966 drum line is considered to be one of the Cavaliers' best, and it propelled the corps to the American Legion Nationals crown and very nearly to the VFW title, too. 1967 saw Cavalier Hall, the first corps hall in the activity go up in flames, taking the corps' trophies with it. 1967, too, was the first time in eighteen years that the Cavies did not include "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" in their musical program. They also won the VFW Nationals, then repeated as American Legion Champions. The high of 1967 was followed by a 1968 where nothing was just quite right, and the corps finished second at VFW Nationals. Then they rebounded in 1969, winning the American Legion title, and barely losing VFW to the <a href="/wiki/Kilties_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" class="mw-redirect" title="Kilties Drum and Bugle Corps">Kilties</a>. Probably the highlight of 1970 was the Cavaliers' rise from eleventh place at VFW Nationals to third place in Finals. Overall, the "Green Machine" of the 1960s had won three American Legion and four VFW National Championships, and did not finish lower than third place in sixteen national finals competitions (VFW, American Legion, and <a href="/wiki/CYO" class="mw-redirect" title="CYO">CYO</a>).<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1971, at the urging of Don Warren and Troopers founder Jim Jones, the <a href="/wiki/Blue_Stars_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="Blue Stars Drum and Bugle Corps">Blue Stars</a>, Cavaliers, <a href="/wiki/Madison_Scouts_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="Madison Scouts Drum and Bugle Corps">Madison Scouts</a>, <a href="/wiki/Santa_Clara_Vanguard_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="Santa Clara Vanguard Drum and Bugle Corps">Santa Clara Vanguard</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Troopers_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="Troopers Drum and Bugle Corps">Troopers</a> formed the Midwest Combine. This action was taken in reaction to the rigid, inflexible rules of the American Legion and VFW (the primary rule makers and sponsors of both corps and shows) and the low or nonexistent performance fees paid for appearing in the various competitions. The corps felt that not only were they having their creative potential as artistic performing groups stifled, but they were being financially starved. (A similar group of Eastern corps, the United Organization of Junior Corps (also known as the "Alliance"), was formed by the 27th Lancers, <a href="/wiki/The_Cadets_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="The Cadets Drum and Bugle Corps">Garfield Cadets</a>, <a href="/wiki/Boston_Crusaders_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="Boston Crusaders Drum and Bugle Corps">Boston Crusaders</a>, Blessed Sacrament Golden Knights, and Blue Rock.) The Combine members felt that the corps should be making their own rules, operating their own competitions and championships, and keeping the bulk of the monies those shows earned. For the 1971 season, the corps stuck together, offering show promoters the five corps as a package. Despite pressure on show sponsors, judges, and other drum corps, the Combine corps were not only booked into a number of shows together, but they found a host for a show of their own, which was a spectacular success despite fears of failure that lasted until a standing-room-only crowd arrived literally at the last moment.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> But 1971 was not as much of a success for the Cavaliers. Their show with the guard doing an Irish jig and a circus section was not well-received, and the corps fell to eighth at CYO Nationals and, with most of the top corps opting for VFW VFW Nationals, they finished in second behind the <a href="/wiki/Argonne_Rebels_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" class="mw-redirect" title="Argonne Rebels Drum and Bugle Corps">Argonne Rebels</a> at the Legion Nationals in the <a href="/wiki/Houston" title="Houston">Houston</a> <a href="/wiki/Astrodome" title="Astrodome">Astrodome</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1972, the Cavaliers, along with the nine other corps from the Midwest Combine and the Alliance, plus the <a href="/wiki/Anaheim_Kingsmen_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" title="Anaheim Kingsmen Drum and Bugle Corps">Anaheim Kingsmen</a>, <a href="/wiki/Argonne_Rebels_Drum_and_Bugle_Corps" class="mw-redirect" title="Argonne Rebels Drum and Bugle Corps">Argonne Rebels</a>, and De La Salle Oaklands were founding members of Drum Corps International, which remains as the sanctioning body for junior corps in North America. At the first DCI World Championships in <a href="/wiki/Whitewater,_Wisconsin" title="Whitewater, Wisconsin">Whitewater, Wisconsin</a>, the Cavaliers finished in ninth place in a competition that featured thirty-nine corps from the East, the South, the West Coast, the Midwest and Great Plains, and Canada. The 1972 Cavies also won another VFW National Championship in <a href="/wiki/Minneapolis" title="Minneapolis">Minneapolis</a>, their seventh. 1973 was a troublesome year for the Cavaliers. Money was tight; recruitment was difficult; the staff was having a hard time dealing with a rapidly changing activity Little did anyone know until later that Don Warren was giving thought to shutting down the Cavaliers. But the Cavies hung together, muddled through, and finished in fifteenth place at DCI in Whitewater.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Over the next four years, 1974–77, the Cavaliers seemed to have rebounded somewhat from the down year of '73. Two years in eighth place were followed by two years in seventh place at DCI, although one of the sevenths was due to the Bridgemen's disqualification in 1977. They also won two more VFW National Championships in 1974 and '76. But there was dissension among the members and alumni, with some glorying in the Green Machine's past success; some wanting to just to do anything as long as they were doing something; and others who were among the new breed of "corpies', who would move from one corps to another in search of competitive success. There was also an unacknowledged drug problem that came to a head in 1977 when several members almost died while returning from a show. The rift between factions widened as accusations of fault were bandied back and forth. Don Warren and the corps management met with members, parents, and boosters to get everything out in the open. Seven members were suspended for the rest of the season; five would not return. The hangover from the incident carried over into 1978, as the corps, with many new staff members, largely alumni, managed only a sixteenth place finish at DCI, but, even if it was not apparent, the foundation was laid for future success with the naming of Adolph DeGrauwe as corps director. The Cavaliers ended the 1970s with the 1980 VFW crown, their tenth. During the decade, they had made DCI Finals seven times in nine years, and would never again fall from the ranks of DCI's Top Twelve Finalists.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the early 1980s, the judges were looking for "cutting edge" performances, and the were not getting them from the Cavaliers. However, the Cavies' <a href="/wiki/Winter_guard" title="Winter guard">winter guard</a> was providing that cutting edge under the leadership of Steve Brubaker, winning the <a href="/wiki/Winter_Guard_International" title="Winter Guard International">Winter Guard International</a> championship in 1981-83. In 1982, Brubaker, who had also been working with the Cavalier Cadets corps since '78, was named head drill designer for the Cavaliers. This brought about a change in attitude and, along with the music selections becoming more and more classically oriented, eventually saw the Cavaliers rise to the top half of DCI Finalists. It took some time, though. 1982's Pines of Rome started the season with near-disastrous results, and the corps felt that it was luck as much as talent that earned the corps an eleventh place finish at DCI in <a href="/wiki/Montreal" title="Montreal">Montreal</a>. But 1982 also saw the Cavaliers solidify their association with the Village of Rosemont and its mayor, <a href="/wiki/Donald_Stephens" title="Donald Stephens">Donald E. Stephens</a>, a relationship that would relieve the corps of many financial worries. The corps improved to ninth in 1983 and eighth in '84, and the crowds were seeing something new and different in Brubaker's drill schemes. The 1985 program of "Also Spracht Zarathustra" and selections from "The Planets" wowed fans and judges alike, vaulting the Cavaliers into a fifth place finish in <a href="/wiki/Madison,_Wisconsin" title="Madison, Wisconsin">Madison, Wisconsin</a>; the Cavies' first finish in the top half of DCI's Top Twelve.

But 1990 also saw the Cavies start the transition to three valve horns, and it was the year of the Cavaliers' very first DCI Regional championship, when they upset the previously undefeated Blue Devils and Phantom Regiment to win DCI Midwest at Whitewater.

The 1999 season was much like the one before, except that the Green Machine moved up to third place at DCI Championships in Madison. As the Twentieth Century came to a close, the Cavaliers were driving toward the end with a show of Michael Daugherty's "Niagara Falls" and an original composition by Richard Saucedo. They lost an early show to the Cadets, lost their home show and DCI Midwestern in <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis" title="Indianapolis">Indianapolis</a> to the Blue Devils, but they won three other DCI Regionals, Drums Along the Rockies in Denver, DCI Mid-America in <a href="/wiki/Murfreesboro,_Tennessee" title="Murfreesboro, Tennessee">Murfreesboro, Tennessee</a>, and DCI East in Allentown. At the DCI Championships in <a href="/wiki/College_Park,_Maryland" title="College Park, Maryland">College Park, Maryland</a>, the Cavaliers were three tenths of a point behind The Cadets in both Quarterfinals and Semifinals, but added nearly a point to their Finals score and tied The Cadets for their third DCI World Championship of the decade.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cavs_4-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cavs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Twenty-first Century opened for the Cavaliers much as the Twentieth had ended. The 2001 program of Saucedo's "Four Corners" won DCM, was second to Blue Devils at DCI Southwestern in <a href="/wiki/San_Antonio" title="San Antonio">San Antonio</a>, then won DCI Mid-America in Murfreesboro, DCI Midwestern in Indianapolis, and DCI Eastern in Philadelphia. Although they lost several shows to both BD and The Cadets, the Cavaliers took command at the DCI championships in Buffalo, winning Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and Finals for their first consecutive championships since winning the American Legion Nationals in 1966 and '67. 2002 was much like 1961 had been; with an original program of "Frameworks" by Richard Saucedo, Bret Kuhn, and Erik Johnson, the Cavaliers won, and they won, and they won again, and again, and again. They took DCM and then won three DCI Regionals, the Southwestern in San Antonio, the Midwestern in Indianapolis, and Drums Along the Rockies in Denver. When the Cavaliers swept through the three rounds at the DCI World Championships in Madison with unheard of score margins of 1.75 to 1.95 points, the corps had not only won a <a href="/wiki/Three-peat" title="Three-peat">three-peat</a>, but they had earned the second undefeated season in the corps' history.<sup id="cite_ref-hist_2-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hist-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>From August 2, 2002 through July 25, 2003, the Cavaliers won a DCI record sixty-four (64) contests in a row. The 2003 show, "Spin Cycle" by Richard Saucedo won the last DCM Championship before the top corps abandoned the circuit, and the DCI Southwestern Regional before the Blue Devils caught up and won both the Midwestern Regional and DCI East. The two corps went into DCI Championships in Orlando seemingly seemingly neck-and-neck, but the Devils dominated the Championships, and rather than the Cavies getting their sixth crown, the Devils gained their eleventh. In 2004, the corps hosted a percussion reunion; Cavalier drummers from 1948 through 2004, including every snare drummer since 1961, gathered to play together. Then the Cavaliers' "007" show of tunes from James Bond movies powered through the season, losing once to the Devils and twice to The Cadets en route to the sixth DCI title that had eluded them the previous year. After the DCI Championships in Denver, the Cavaliers, The Cadets, Madison Scouts, Phantom Regiment, Blue Devils, and Santa Clara Vanguard, the winners of all but two DCI Championships made a four show tour through California. 2005 started out with the Cavies' "My Kind of Town" program winning their first twenty-one contests. Then The Cadets caught up and won three pre-Championship shows. At <a href="/wiki/Foxboro,_Massachusetts" class="mw-redirect" title="Foxboro, Massachusetts">Foxboro, Massachusetts</a>, The Cadets puled away and left everyone in their dust, including the second place Cavaliers. The Cavaliers' 2006 show, another original by Saucedo and Casella entitled "Machine" had the Green Machine in top form. The corps lost three mid-season shows to the Blue Devils, but won everything else, including the Cavalier's fifth DCI World Championship in five years and seventh overall. In early 2008, Jeff Fiedler stepped down after seventeen years as the Cavaliers' director. He was replaced by former director Adolph DeGrauwe. Since their 2006 title, the Cavaliers have remained in the top four at DCI Finals, but are still in search of an eighth DCI crown.<sup id="cite_ref-reps_3-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reps-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Sponsorship">Sponsorship</h2></div> <p>The Cavaliers Drum & Bugle Corps is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization sponsored by The Village of Rosemont, Illinois and has a Board of Directors, corps director, and staff assigned to carry out the organization's mission.
