Letterboxing

Letterboxing is an intriguing pastime combining artistic ability with "treasure-hunts" in parks, forests, and cities around the world. Participants seek out hidden letterboxes by cracking codes and following clues. The prize: an image from a miniature piece of art known as a rubber stamp—usually a unique, hand-carved creation.

Letterboxers stamp their discoveries in a personal journal, then use their own rubber stamp, called a signature stamp, to stamp into the letterbox's logbook.

Atlas Quest started as a set of tools for letterboxers, but has grown into a community of letterboxers. Pull up a chair, meet new friends, and dig into letterboxing.

For those of you who may be intrigued by the concept of Letterboxing, here is a website for information about all things letterboxing.

Candle in the Wind

My candle burns at both ends It will not last the night; But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends -
It gives a lovely light.
 
Apparently Flat Jenni burned the candle from both ends last night at Retreat. Her hair caught on fire and she hasn't been seen again.
 
Her candle burned out long before her legend ever did. A big thanks to Paddlegal Farley for transporting her to a Retreat of a lifetime.

Our Fearless Leaders

Flat Jenni made it to Wisconsin and met up with the Queens of Club Scrap. This was a dream come true for her.
