BCLC
leaves Jackpod on Vancouver street corner
July
2004 - Newspirit
That's
Jackpod... not Jackpot. On June 16, Kevin Gass, British
Columbia Lott T ery Corporation's (BCLC) vice-president
of Corporate Communications & Marketing, was joined
by Mayor Larry Campbell and Stephen Miller, president
of the The BC Lions Society for Children with Disabilities,
to unveil three new orca sculptures (a pod) at the
corner of Hornby and Robson in Vancouver.
This
event showcased BCLC's sponsorship commitment to Orcas
in the City, an exciting community art project that
benefits children in need through The BC Lions Society's
Easter Seal Operations and the Canucks for Kids Fund.
The
project features approximately 65 eight-foot decorated
fibreglass orca sculptures displayed in outdoor locations
across the Lower Mainland. BCLC commissioned artists
Ross Agro and Ovidio to decorate ”Jackpod”
to capture the fun and excitement of lottery, casino
and bingo games.
Until
the fall, the orcas can be seen at the corner of Robson
and Hornby. Visit www.orcasinthecity.com for
more information.
