Our History

Celebrating Our Community, Together

Caballeros de Yuma was founded in 1962 by a group of 20 businessmen for the purpose of greeting groups and VIPs who visited Yuma (AZ) County. A second purpose was to sponsor special events, which publicized and attracted visitors to the City and County of Yuma. From those humble beginnings, the Caballeros have grown to almost a hundred strong – all local businessmen who work voluntarily without pay. Our events also have grown in number, size, and stature, making them among the most popular activities in the Southwest.
