It goes a lot faster if you have a few friends in small, fast ships. That group can go from one site to the next very quickly.
If you're in the shipyard site when it's cleared, you get credit for it. You don't need the contents of the box to get credit for the site.
Other objectives I've seen:
Mining. They range from doable amounts with a venture to 5 Mackinaws of plagioclase. Other ores: Kernite, Scordite, Veldspar.
Kill a belt rat with a rookie ship.
Kill 10 any-Serpentis (mission rats count).
Kill 10 guards (Serpentis and Angel flavored versions).
Complete 10 DED sites.
Kill 5 drifters with a frigate. Not worth farming, but definitely something to write home about.
Kill 5 drifters with a cruiser.
Clear 1/5/10 of the not-shipyard sites. If you get two objectives for the same site, it only counts toward one. Most are 100 points each.
Clear a Sortie site for 50 points.
Kill 200 Serpentis. Maybe there's an Angel version? I think it was 1000 points. Any Serpentis count.
The sites can be done in PvP-fit ships. They aren't quite as picky about ship fits as the Guristas ones were.
Probably the best (cheap) ships for the event are Minmatar, because a quick swap of ammo will let you switch between Serpentis and Angel sites very quickly. Anything which can change damage types should do well, but the Angels like to kill drones. If you want shinier, a Cynabal should work well. If you're willing to kite them around and pay attention to where they are, no tank mods is a viable build for the sites (be able to do at least 1km/second). It's not a very good idea if you find an implant in a box.
I've known the guard ships to warp between belts and stargates. The frigates always go first, then the cruisers, then the battleship. Angel battleships take a serious amount of ammo to kill if you aren't using explosive weapons. Guards don't shoot unless you shoot them first. If you need to kill guards, look in the belts in a system where there is/was recently a site from that faction.
If you have the spare drone bay space, run salvage drones once you clear out all the frigates.
