Volunteer Trophy

Mary Maguire, a sculptor, Black Hawk Rifle Club member and thirty-five year Camp Perry volunteer, has sculpted, cast and donated a 15 by 12 inch bas-relief bronze plaque of the US BRIGANTINE NIAGARA. Commodore Oliver H. Perry transferred his "Don't Give Up The Ship" battle flag to the Niagara then he and his crew sailed the vessel to a stunning victory over the British fleet. In the bronze sculpture, the Niagara is shown in full sail at the height of victory. The trophy will be awarded in all three phases of the NRA National Championships:  Smallbore Rifle, Precision Pistol and High Power Rifle.
