Ingelsrud farm is located in Eidskog municipality in Hedmark. The municipality borders in the north against Kongsvinger and South Odal, in the west against Aurskog-Høland and Nes. Eidskog is otherwise a border municipality against Sweden, and if I do not remember much wrong some of hitchhiking routes went through Sweden.

A scout jamboree provides a lifetime of memories. Personally, I’ve been fortunate that I’ve been involved in two national jamborees, Skaugum in 1989 and Eidskog in 1993. I also have many good memories from district camps and tours with scout group.

From jamboree in Eidskog I have only a small number of pictures. At the time there were 24 or 36 exposure film that had to be developed and printed.
