One of the exercises for the class was to pick out a letterboxing
"challenge" from a jar & come up with as many ideas as we can on how to
implement it. The challenges I remember were:

Design a letterbox that specifically seeks out its recipient, & then
moves on to the next letterboxer.
Design a letterbox that plays a prank on the finder.
Design a letterbox that raises money for charity.
Design a letterbox that "indoctrinates" young children (2-6 yr old) to
the hobby.
(One more I can't remember)

The 2nd challenge I was part of was to "Create ways to distribute clues
that haven't been used before".

Here's what we came up with:

Personal Ad in the newspaper
Bathroom Graffiti
Slip a piece of paper into a book, maybe a library book about England &
put it on the page with a reference to Dartmoor
Random Mailings
Post on public bulletin boards
Put together a basic letterbox & leave it in the open in a public place.
It would also include an explanation of the hobby & clues to another box
Read the clues at a spoken word poetry reading
Put your clues in a fortune cookie
Billboard
Bumper Stickers
Skywriting
T-shirts
Embed clues either in your own person stamp or logbook, a box's stamp or
logbook

We know that most of these could not really be targeted to boxers
specifically, but instead would be sent out to the general populace,
which brings up a whole other issue. But, the challenge didn't specify
the distribution had to go to boxers.
