Each year we plan a special Chamber trip for our members, featuring special pricing from our friends at Chamber Discoveries. Prior to the pandemic, we had conducted a survey of 3 locations, Ireland, Argentina, or Switzerland. Ireland was overwhelmingly chosen as our destination for 2020. Due to the pandemic, we were forced to postpone that trip. The good news is that Ireland is back on as an option for our members with a trip planned for March of 2022. Before we finalize this trip, we'd like to get your feedback on options for travel.
Take just a minute and let us know your thoughts.
Thank you for your response.
