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.

Joining is easier
At today's board meeting we've tweaked the application form so it's even easier to understand, and has some more important information with included on it. Read on for pricing once we have our vehicles in place.
We're accepting applications for membership, and would appreciate you signing up now so that when we have vehicles in service this Fall, you're ready to drive.
You'll have to visit or fax an SGI location to get a Driver Abstract, copy your valid drivers licence (black and white is okay), write a $525 cheque ($500 of which is refundable given simple conditions), read the application form and membership manual, and mail us the completed application form.
Pricing we're keeping simple, just remember FIVE-FIFTY. It's $5.00/h and 50¢/km to drive RCS vehicles. For example, a 2 hour booking where you drive 10km would cost just $15 on your bill.
The next RCS Board meeting is July 30, 5:30 PM at the RCS office on 11th Ave.
Sincerely,
John Klein

Latest News
The Regina Car Share Co-operative is moving along, looking at putting together a solid plan to have car keys into members' hands this year. To that end, the Board has elected a new President and Treasurer to join the current Secretary on the executive. The Board will have a retreat outside of Fort Qu'Appelle this coming weekend to work out more of the details of the business plan that will launch the first operational car share in the province.
