Description
Our Geo Art, Fairway Fun, is designed to highlight some of the activities now available to locals and visitors. This is the first of 12 Geo Art caches forming an F
Fairway Park began life as a 9 hole golf course and became redundant with the opening of the 18 hole Allison golf course along Lobster Creek. Since then the area has become a multi use park for all with BBQs, play and exercise equipment, paths for walkers, joggers and bike riders, a sound shell for out door musical performances, a dog friendly cafe, grassed areas for play and dog walking, a Water Slide, Skate park, Pump Bike Track and the Surf Club. Close by you will find the Yacht, Football and Bowls clubs as well as the break water, a popular fishing spot; an off leash dog exercise beach, the caravan park and Shropshire Park home of the Naval Memorial, a place for quiet reflection and remembrance. The nearby beach has safe swimming in front of the Surf Club and plenty of beach for beach combing and sand play. The beach is regularly patrolled.
There is plenty of safe parking near by.
Take a quiet stroll in the park to locate this sistema.

Logs
Thanks 2y'stassies for this Geo Art series, hopefully we'll get back soon to grab the last two.
The trip started at a leisurely 6.30 am and while going over the highland route we started our first of three major GCA trails at 10.30. The trip over the highlands was worth the detour, with a First to find at the "Bridge over Ouse" and a WhereIgo that I had solved for the central highlands a long time ago. The three main runs we took on today, were the "Challenging" Sailboat Geoart, the "tricky" F Fairway and the "very clever" Lighting bolt caches. I have to say that the lighting bolt caches had a cache design I had never seen before, so was an absolute highlight.
Thank you for placing these caches for our enjoyment
Cache in good condition albeit easily spotted from a distance. Re-hid better then on to the next one.
Many thanks 2y'stassies for creating this geoart and adding to our caching experience today.
Some were more of a challenge to find than others but we managed to find them eventually.
Very nice day to wander the area, no wind and the sea was calm.
Found this one pretty easily while we where completing the information to do the GC multi nearby. TFTC
At gz the cache was soon located with a bonus ftf...many tftc cheers ST.
