There’s more to Darlene Clark than meets the eye and if someone were to scratch below the surface they might find she could make them $20,100 richer.
That’s because she’s on the front of the B.C. Lottery Corporation’s latest series of SportsFunder Homegrown Heroes scratch-and-win tickets, a series that features athletes from around the province and which shares proceeds with amateur sports.
Seeing herself on the tickets, holding a staff in a karate pose, is a little weird, Clark admits, but she’s flattered too.
Her husband, Collin, took the photo at a karate tournament in 2003 and when they heard about the lottery corporations call for submissions for the tickets, they sent the photo in last fall.
