Describe the two most interesting or unusual chapter activities this year:

Aside from several undergraduate talks, we have an annual Calculus Bee every April. A problem is posted on the board and all students have one to three minutes to complete the problem, depending on the problem. The contest is triple elimination. Students are given a numerical alias (Putnam style) and everyone's (or really every number's) stat! us is updated on the board for all students to see.

Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present a paper at the 2009 PME national meeting at MathFest in Portland, Oregon?

No
