Joy & Reg will continue to be posted in Chilliwack until March of 1998. After that, who knows? Joy has been very busy keeping up with 3 youngsters while pregnant with the fourth.
That fourth one finally arrived on April 19th. (See separate announcement) Reg figures that since he now has 4 daughters he will one day be father to his own women's curling team.
