The other route I would consider is simply going to their home and talking to them. Wouldn't work in other communities but works well here.
After reading your suggestion I would agree with you. My idea of sending a note in the mail could appear more as a scam. Personally I would be leery of someone that knocked on my door unannounced to discuss something like this.
