Sapphire Speedway Candelo, New South Wales, Australia

Unfortunately, I cannot see any information that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. Therefore as advised previously, the cache is being de-listed (Archived) to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

The [**Geocache Maintenance guideline**](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains what needs to happen with a Disable cache.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center article [**here**](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).

If you wish to contact me please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

---------

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I notice from one or more log entries that this cache would seem to be in need of some help - **there appears to be a need for owner intervention.**

Therefore, the cache is being temporarily disabling so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) I cannot see any log that indicates a recent visit by the CO to this cache.

If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) by **9th September,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (by 9th September). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will unfortunately have to de-list (Archive) the cache on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Nice easy find!

Lid broken

Nice detour. Cache lid is broken but log dry- so far.

Took a slight diversion from my trip along the dirt road to GZ. Not sure the car hire company would like it though. A quick find and TFTC.

Found with skylizard99

Well hidden .. TFTC .. unfortunately the lid has broken and the contents will be open to the elements.. we put the cache in a plastic bag which may offer some protection but it will need to be fixed.

Loved the little bridge you have to cross to get here. We took a while to uncover the cache. The container was wet but the log dry. Loving the places we visit while caching. TFTC

This was a quick path & grab as the cache was out in the open. We replaced the cache with a bit more covering to keep it out of the weather. Kutgw

Out for a cruise while up from Victoria.
My mate has a property a few hills away and I had seen the lights of this place and always wondered just where it was.
If your struggling to find this one just broaden search a little. Maybe my GPS just hated me today.
TFTC

Well hidden. Thank you.

TFTC easy find. 3rd cache for today. Took rubber frog left child Cowboys whistle.
Beaut day to b out n about

Today the GeoSchnauzers and I are heading home, after a magnificent event and caching day yesterday.

This is my third find today, which I found after a surprisingly long search. I walked past it twice. Must have been asleep. Thanks for the cache, Morghar.

Your ziploc bag was totally useless, so I've left you a new one, and thoughtfully disposed of the old one.
Otherwise, the cache was fine.

Tftc, quick park and grab. Merry Christmas !!

4460. Found with Relish64. A slight diversion on our way back to Canberra and a quick find. Very pretty out here at the moment.

Nicely hidden

Well hidden

Found on our 2015 Merimbula trip. We decided to take a small detour from the main highway, to get the caches in Candelo and the surrounding area. It was a very lovely drive on the dirt roads towards the speedway and GZ. We didn't explore further into the speedway, but it sounds very cool. A quick find at GZ. TNLNSL. TFTC Morghar!

Narooma 2015 June. Today was about getting a few caches I missed last year on a trip with SDL. This one was a bit out of the way, but I struggle to ignore green boxes on my GPS. No activity on here today, so a simple grab before getting going again.

Thanks.

I wish the Speedway was on tonight, but at least I found the GC.

No Speedway today. We took a leisurely drive out to Candelo and found Sapphire Speedway.

Nice easy find. Good one to add to my list.
Thanks Morghar.

Quick stop and find after bemboka caching

Easy pick up

Found very easy as it was uncovered. Covered it as best I could. Tftc!!

No one about, so a easy find.
Tho the cache was not at GZ.

On a short holiday Bermagui with a couple of nights in Merimbula on the way home. Great weather,great caches and great views
Thanks Morghar

Easy find after a trip to the Candelo markets.

A quick find today. A beautiful day for a drive around here. Thanks for the cache.

Last day of the trip after an awesome extra-long-weekend away from Canberra to the Coast with Doppelfrog that included mountain, country and beachside exploring. There was no speeding going on and I was surprised to find a speedway so far away from everything. The cache itself was a quick find - thanks Morghar.

Out on a long-weekend-long caching adventure with BatgirlandCo.

Last find of the loing-weekend. Nice little spot, although a little surprised to find a speedway all the way out here!

TFTC!

No speeding here today! Came down to this wonderful corner of Australia to pick up my daughter who was staying with some friends for a couple of days! So why not find a few geocaches whilst I’m here hey! Thanks nodwar.

Found after a great ride at penderlea trail rides. Thks

Cache nice and dry and well covered. Thanks for the pleasant drive and the cache.

Nothing roaring around the track to make us feel like home (we are from Bathurst). Prefer the cache to the cars, actually.

Interesting spot. TFTC

Found this with my Dad fitzy_1965 and sis Stardust2410. Finally catching up with my logs.

TFTC.

6180 + 808 = 6988. Found during a weekend staying at Merimbula with GSC2000 and Stardust2410.

Heading home we decided to do a few caches. Took a small detour for a couple off the highway. Didnt see a soul so when we got to GZ it was a quick find.

Thanks Morghar !

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Merry Christmas. Afternoon fun with the family. TFTC

Had some GPS problems, but quick find by my sister. Tftc

Dropping off TB

Slight little detour and here I am. Not a fan of speed ways but I'm sure there's a huge following, cache soon located, I have a smiley. TFTC

Tftc

Thanks Morhgar for bringing us this way. Nice quick find had been hoping to bag the TB to take to NZMega event but someone beat us to it , ah well that's caching for you. Tftc

Hey hey another FTF.
I remember coming here 20 odd years ago as a St John volunteer.
Thanks Morghar for another cache.
