Hi there PoleCat S,
This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.
You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.
Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so I am having to take the next step and temporarily disable the cache - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)
**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**
#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-
- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache to check, repair, replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.
- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers don't have a crystal ball, so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, or you have been in hospital, or the area is in flood, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
**Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks, so as to keep everyone up to speed.**
- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another Geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**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.
You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.
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.
Thanks for your cooperation,
Bunjil

We had a good check of GZ today, found a logical hiding spot based on others log in one of the tree about eye level but unfortunately no luck today
checked every inch for about 30 minutes, my sister or i both could not locate anything but leaf’s and trash. we looked in trees, under rocks and still could not find it.
My first cache found with my friend Jo it fell out of its spot but we eventually found it we got our warm up walk in ty love it 10/10 good items
Found it new to this plenty I think people are missing. But if anyone can give me some pointers. I don't know whats what but I see it all
Over in Melbourne town for work and being out and about at various locations, I did a quick check of my map to see what’s nearby.
The cache was found after a brief hunt, signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks to PoleCat S for placing and maintaining Dandenong Angels. We were here at 7:46 pm on Saturday and this is my find 9238.

This was our first hunt for our kids. And it was really fun kids enjoy nice little stroll. The kids actually thought I was joking and wouldn’t find anything and the look on their faces when we did lol we are on to the next hunt thank you
Nice hiding spot. We didn't have a pen with us to write down in the log, so of you go take a pen
Visiting Myuna farm today with the geokids and have an hour to spare before our session (bookings only during Covid times). A beautiful walk along the river to this cache. Although there’s a spot where a lot of rubbish and energy drink cans are disposed of so we filled up a shopping bag to take to a bin. TFTC
Waiting for our booked time at Myuna Farm we decided to wander in the adjacent park, find a cache and pick up some rubbish. Sadly there was a LOT of it .
Walking near the creek is gorgeous. Thanks for the hide and introducing us to a new park. Tftc PoleCat S!

Took us awhile to find the closest entry point as the sky was now looking a little ominous. Arrived at GZ, then needed to wait for a few dog walking muggles to pass before commencing the search. Cache was a little exposed, so after signing the log, replaced with a little more camo to keep it safe.
Thank you PoleCat 3.
Thank you PoleCat 3.
Thanks staying locally for a wedding , river flowing well at the moment . Good luck to Baseball team
TCTF!, Scoring a baseball game nearby and decided to take a Little walk. Between a couple of 2 and 4 legged Muggles found this relatively easily.
Found with n0w0rries. We dodged the puddles along the path and soon arrived at GZ. Waited for a muggle to pass by before swooping in for a nice quick find. Always great to find a cache with it's original logbook still intact. Thanks for the cache PoleCat S
A quick find with +Wife this afternoon.
The solitary muggle soon moved out of sight and the cache was spotted from a couple of metres away.
Log book a tad moist, I added a small ziplock bag but I think the book could do with some time in the sun.
Signed and replaced. Visited some travellers for mileage.

Out cycling along the Dandy Creek Trail and remember playing Baseball here against Dandenong back in the day. I played for Chelsea back then and remember the MYF teams of 1969/70 and the Poole brothers. I also remember when this ground was first opened. Fond memories. I have posted a pic of an old newspaper article of results from 1969.
Cache found without problem, log signed and all back safe again.
Thanks PoleCat 5

Home run? Quick find on icy cold and wet morning. Thought I might be able to park closer but gates locked. Great sporting area but soaked after all the rain. Tftc
Pretty easy spot to find, trades some items. It was generally pretty well camouflaged. tftc.
Out with the geokids to find some quick caches. This was spotted by the younger geokid.

I made the long walk to gz but had to keep stopping as a guy decided he would do small workouts along the way! Quick find TFTC
Tricky hide! Box in good condition. Left a little bundle of treasures for the next explorer!!
Thank you polecat. Decided to collect this one on my way home although was a slight detour but wanted to keep me cache streak going. The cache was easy to locate with the cache coords spot on. Cache is in excellent condition. Good location and was nice and quiet this afternoon seeing only one cyclist. Sure it would be busy on weekends though.
Found on 3 July 2018 at 3:37:45 pm. Find #2662. On a 18 km ride decided to grab this ripper on the trail. Thanks for the adventure.
On a quick down and back trip to Melbourne with Mezza74. Today concentrating on my missing hidden dates. Luckily (unlike an earlier cache) gz was free from muggles resulting in a quick find.

It was a long ride from previous cache to here, someone should put out more caches along this creek
Quick find on my way to work nearby. Nice short walk with lovely morning sunny. TFTC and bringing me here.
Had to pickup geo boy from Chisholm and was running a little early so made the quick walk to here and made an easy find.. tftc
Bit hard to find if your not looking up high enough!! Left a little treasure!!! Good find!!
Nice quick and easy find whilst out and about with OzHockeyChick today. Thanks for the cache.

Found today after work. Was quite surprised how fast the creek flows.
My phone went flat with about 50 metres to go but I still managed to find it.
Cops were doing RBT and full pullover in the park out the front.
Cheers PoleCat S

An afternoon to kill so decided to grab a couple of caches. Hit GZ and found after a brief search, TFTC
Signed in the pouring rain. I ran from the car, phone in one hand, umbrella in the other and a writing stick attached to my shirt!
A quick find for a cold and wet day!

Family ties took us from the West to Dandenong and beyond today. After a visit at Dandenong hospital, we decided to fit in one cache for the day - and this was it. Unfortunately, we came in the dark and may have missed seeing some interesting features of this park and creek.
Thanks for the neat hide and the smilie face on our map!
