The Engage site hosts examples of R-CG, information about past and upcoming information sessions, links to four webinars, provides answers to frequently asked questions and allows you to ask additional questions and provide your own feedback until March 17th, 2024. There is a nearby info session March 16th from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM at the Ranchlands Community Association (7713 Ranchview Drive NW).
