The Crusader Senior Drum and Bugle Corps has been in existence since 1991.

With over 55 years of pride and tradition to preserve, and to renew old friendships, as well as creating new ones, former members of the Boston Crusaders decided to extend the "Crusader Family" and form a senior corps.

In 1991, that dream became a reality as brothers and Crusader alumni, Neil and Terry Connolly, organized the "Saders".  Another Crusader alumni and drummer, the late Paul Bush, helped get things off to a strong start as the percussion instructor.  

As the organization continued to grow, 1992 saw many changes, including a closer alliance with the "Boston Crusaders.  Under new management and the musical guidance of the late Ed Denon, this organization returned to its musical roots.

1992 saw the emergence of the "Crusader Senior Drum & Bugle Corps" and the resurgence of the "Crusader Style" that so many loved.  While maintaining the type of music that had made the Crusader name a formidable one in drum corps history, we continue to increase our already extensive repertoire.  It has long been the goal of this drum corps to blend new and innovative arrangements with the tunes of yesteryear such as "When a Man Loves a Woman", El Capitan", "Mondo Cane", and the ever popular "Conquest".  Over the years the "Crusader Senior Corps" has traveled the United States performing in parades and drum and bugle corps shows.
