more important. Understanding how to successfully
navigate international cultures is a key to expanding
business,” said Theresa Hardin, Vice President

enjoyable trips I have ever led; it’s a country with a
fascinating history and a welcoming culture.”

Many retired members and current members have
travelled with the Chamber in the past; however,
these trips are open to everyone.

Some of the highlights of the 11-day trip include:

• Malbork Castle, one of the largest castles in the
world
• Poignant history of Auschwitz

• Gdansk Shipyard, site of the creation of the Anti-
Communist Solidarity Movement in 1980 that helped
liberate Poland from Soviet rule

• Jasna Góra Monastery, to witness the world-famous
Black Madonna
