RIDGECREST, Calif. — For AltaOne Federal Credit Union a question mark helped get area residents buzzing.

Launching a campaign built around mystery that generated curiosity and suspense, the credit union strategically placed two, six-foot red question mark shaped statues within several community locations in a three-mile radius of the member service center. Locations included restaurants, grocery stores and the Bakersfield Condors hockey game.
