Report for Evansville-Owensboro Section, April 1, 2013, 
Paul Kuban, Section Chair

Most fun activity/program your section has had recently?

The Section participated in a tour of the Toyota Motor
Manufacturing Indiana (TMMI) plant.  We witnessed
(almost) all stages of the creation of a Toyota Sienna
mini-van and were treated to an excellent presentation
by the staff.

Most successful activity/program your section has had recently.

We recently adopted the Concentration Banking CB-card
program.  Although we had a few bumps with the initial
launch, the card has been working great, especially
for things like the upcoming SECON event.


Member Engagement Activities: What did your Section do related to 
member engagement beyond meetings (projects, activities, etc.)?

We have provided continuing support for the IEEE student
groups and for several university-based events.

Section activities focused outward: What activities did your Section 
do related to engaging members, industry, and the public in advancing, 
understanding, and properly using technologies of interest to IEEE.

We attempt to engage the aforementioned groups by allowing
all interested parties to attend our meetings, which generally
have a technical focus such as a recent "Android app programming"
presentation.


Barriers: What barriers does your section have in carrying out 
these activities?

Attendance at meetings is always poor relative to the number 
of members, with fewer than 20 typically.

Issues requiring action by the Region 3 ExCom or Committee

Nothing to report.
