established practice of the conference is to organize outdoor scientific retreat

beautiful areas in North East Poland. The retreat includes camping in tents
and cooking on campfire (both weather permitting). The kick-off party dinner with traditional Polish food will take place
at a country farm near starting point of the kayak trip.
