As there's been no cache to find for some time, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
We did not find it too. And this was not our first attempt. Tried at end of June and in July and now in August...
979 Down for the indoor bowls nationals. Quick find during a bye round in the singles
Constructing a route to avoid timaru on our trip north constructed of caches we needed to visit we were suprising at the lack of in this area, but at least we found this one. Log is wet.
My first night find! Luckily just out of reach of the floodlights of stadium (not sure if that made me more or less dodgy looking...)
First cache! Would have liked a tougher clue but thanks nonetheless! We left a little something there. A&N.
A big mission awaited - Sonia and Menzo's wedding in Nydia Bay. Considering the number of cachers in the family, it is not surprising that we turned the trip there and back into a semi-caching road trip! We signed most logbooks as team polak to save space and time. We are grateful to all CO's who made our travels so much more fun.
We were getting a bit peckish and realised that we will never make it to Christchurch where dinner was waiting for us before starving, so I messaged a friend in Timaru to check which is the best fish and chip shop in town. It happened to be just around the corner from this cache, so we had a nice picnic before looking for it. TFTC!!

#212. Left this one up to the relatives after introducing them to geocaching. A nice basic hide for them to find after a short search. TFTC!
Good spotting that this one had just been re-enabled so we could go out and get it tonight.
Quick find while dodging the muggles. We come up to the stadium on a regular basis for sports and never get a chance to pick this up, so it was a nice change that we were free tonight to be able to grab it.

Great Timaru spot that I used to come to as a kid. Nice to have a reason to return return to a childhood haunt. Sorry to say Zekeasaurus TB missing from the cache.
An oldie and still a goodie!!! Lovely park and some very interesting hockey going on close by. Thank you.
Hit a tennis ball, ride a bike, climb a spider's web and Geo a cache. Nice way to spend Easter afternoon with family. A blessing to you all
Quickly found...it was the first of a caching-tour in Timaru.
Thank you and greetings from Switzerland [blue]Li[teal]sa[blue]-[blue]Lot[teal]ta

Quickly retrieved between spectating motley junior athletics events but had to have a sit down on the bank waiting for muggles to move on. TFTC
Clues lead us straight to it. Quick find on a day of biking around geocaching, with Moustachecashstash, slydog.007 and Jackie987. TFTC!
Came to Timaru to watch my son take part in a hockey tournament. A nearby cache was too tempting! TFTC.
5 year old found this one after hockey practices , needs a new log book cheers
Looked and looked and then spotted it in the open. Signed the little guy and then replaced the cache according to the hint, I think. Thanks from this Canadian!
Another beautiful day for some caching in South Canterbury. Thanks for the hide.
The last one found on a days worth of caching, in the dead of night all quiet so an easy grab.

TFTC. Thanks for placing a quick park and grab here - I wouldn't want to be found hanging around in this public place.
flobberworm! and purdidepurdie out for a few days caching play.

Came by with Roostaman tonight after caching all day driving from Christchurch, and by the time we got here it was getting dark...but a good time for there were no muggles around to impede our search. Certainly looks like a good spot for all sorts of sports and activities.
Gratias waitaki999.
