Catholic Knights Donate Trophy

A trophy won by Port Washington's first drill team, the Catholic Knights of St. Charles team, was donated to the Eghart House restoration by the knights.  The drill team was started in 1896 and continued until 1920.  The trophy, which was won in Sheboygan in 1914,  was presented by Leo Pierringer along with one of the drill team swords.
