These mappings seem to do the job:

" Run visually selected text through the Chicken Scheme Interpreter.
" Output is displayed in Vim's command line area. Pressing I then
" RETURN inserts the output into the buffer below the selected text.
vmap <silent> <leader>c :w! /tmp/scheme-snippet<cr>}:!csi-vim-cmd<cr>:
command I r !csi-vim-cmd
