Raiders Drum and Bugle Corps

The Raiders Drum and Bugle Corps is a Drum Corps International Open Class drum corps based in Wayne, New Jersey and founded in 1990.

The corps has competed in both Divisions II and III. In Division II, their highest placement was 6th, in 2007. In Division III, The Raiders are one-time champions, in 2005. The show, based on the music of Jesus Christ Superstar, was a notable step up from the sixth-place finish the corps had the year before. In 2006 the Raiders captured the Division III Bronze Medal. The Raiders have also finished second one time in Division III, in 2001.

In 2006, The Raiders placed 3rd in the DCI Division III Finals located in Madison, Wisconsin.Their show was entitled "Coast to Coast" which had three different songs that expressed the traveling from a busy New York, through a calm Midwest, and finishing in California.

The corps song is "One More Time", which is sung by the entire corps just before taking the field. The corps also makes it a tradition to play "Right Now" by Van Halen just before warming up for a performance.
