The neckerchief was yellow edged in green, and the uniform was subsidised by the Church. The newly formed troop, under Rev. Nicholson, joined the district for the annual St. George’s Day Service in King George Street, Yeovil, on Sunday afternoon of April 22nd. For a full report see the main chapter, which do so for all district events. There was a large congregation on Sunday evening of November 11th for a special Armistice Day Service at the Parish Church, when the West Coker Scouts, under A.S.M. J.Jennings, were present along with the Girl Guides and British Legion members. The annual St. George’s Day Service was on Sunday afternoon of April 28th 1935, when the troop, under Rover J.Jenning of Holy Trinity Yeovil, joined the district, when they assembled outside the Mansion House, Yeovil. The Silver Jubilee celebration of King George 5th included a procession on Monday May the 6th, leaving the School that included the Girl Guides with their standards, and the Boy Scouts, led by a drum and bugle band, made a grand tour of the village.
