Contextual information

Guiding in Busselton had started in 1917, but records are sketchy - we do know that in 1928 the Country Organising Commissioner for WA., Mrs C E F Bull visited the area to form a local company of Guiders, and that Mrs Yates had been running a small informal company and was District Commissioner from 1920. The movement was formalised on May 30th 1928 when First Busselton Guides were formed.
