Do you have an “a-ha” moment in your life? That thought or inspiration that made you change course, maybe inspired a job change, or to move to Bend, or to finally ask your childhood sweetheart to marry you? 

Mutual of Omaha is filming folks discussing those enlightening moments, with potential to appear in a national ad. We don’t quite get it either, but some of you might find this type of sharing, well, invigorating, I suppose. 

Have your “a-ha” moment condensed to a 30 second pitch and find the airstream trailer in downtown! Find out more here. 

August 14 -15, 10 am-6 pm.
