RCS memberships help support an environmentally friendly community project, and save members thousands of dollars in vehicle ownership costs. Please join today. Joining is easy, and you can phone us with any questions.
And I'd like to remind everyone that our new rates are lower, and members get a $25 referral bonus for each person they successfully sign up with the co-operative.
Happy New Year everyone,
John Klein

Rolling Along
We've activated the online booking system today, so all of our members should have a message in their email box now with details on booking, and using, the car.
Thank you to everyone who was so patient with the process that has put Saskatchewan's first car share smack into the middle of Regina. Thank you to our members, and my fellow board members (past and present) for your years of hard work. I look forward to helping RCS grow and improve service over the years to serve more of our community, at even more affordable rates, with high tech equipment in every car for added convenience.
The RCS Board is currently in negotiations with a business to bring car sharing to another neighbourhood in the city. So, expect our fleet to expand soon!
Yours in sharing,
John Klein

RCS Gets its First Car - On TV
The first car has arrived! It's a 2008 Kia Rio5 hatchback. It will be available to members in November, 2009. We plan to have a launch date for members soon, along with their key, and detailed billing information.
--Global Regina featured Regina Car Share Co-operative on their Friday news last week. RCS member Brett took interviewer Ryan around for a drive, with me and cameraman Adrian in the back seat of the Rio5. RCS was also featured in the latest issue of Westworld magazine by CAA Saskatchewan, and the Sask Co-op Youth Association in their e-zine.

Latest News
Good evening Car Sharers:
It's been a long time in the making, and full operation is so close I can taste it. We're about 2 weeks, or less, away from having our first vehicle available to approved members. A deposit is in for a vehicle, we're just waiting for an affordable and quality used car (that meets our criteria) to show up on the market for our dealer to snap it up.
Our latest board meeting was tonight, and we're excited to be so close to offering the province's first car share to the people of Regina. We'll be making information available to members soon on how to book the car online from our website, and how to get their key once it's available.
