EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of adventure and camaraderie that defined the international Scout movement in the 1930s. The Dutch Rover Scout, identified as Jan van Ingen, a student from Amsterdam, is seen setting off on his bicycle, laden with camping gear, en route to the Third International Rover Scout Moot or gathering. Held at Monzie Castle in Crieff, Scotland, on July 14, 1939, this historic event brought together thousands of Scouts from 21 different nations. Jan, dressed in his Scout uniform, embodies the sense of determination and self-reliance that was a hallmark of the Scouting experience. His bicycle, a practical means of transport, is a testament to the resourcefulness and ingenuity of these young explorers. In the background, tents are already set up in the field, signaling the beginning of the communal camping experience that would unfold over the coming days. The Moot was set to be opened by Lord Somers, Deputy Chief Scout, promising a gathering filled with learning, friendship, and adventure. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when the simple pleasures of outdoor living and the camaraderie of Scouting brought people from all corners of the world together.
