One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

A couple of very old and no longer used Netball courts here by the look of them....or do they play on grass. H'mm, not sure now.

Cache was found a short search and all was good. Still only about 1000 and very quiet as well.

Thanks for yet another one on our run around the area........

I am up in Orange for Easter to attend a significant family event and thought I would pick up a few of the local caches. With my nephew's wedding over with yesterday, I had today fairly free.

This was the first I found on my early morning excursion in the drizzle. Thanks to the hint it was a quick find.

Newman Park is a very pleasant urban oasis which was completely deserted due to the early hour. Thanks SushiKitten.

Found my 100th geocache this 2013 Australia Day long weekend, but I'd never logged any of my finds. So I decided now is an opportune time to do so!

This was cache #44, found on a caching afternoon in Orange. TFTC!
 
15-Jul-12
another coolish morning in Orange and another walk for the geodog, I remember as a little fella playing soccer on this very field many moons ago, it doesn't look like too many games are played here now.
Found GZ quickly enough and gave geodog a bit of a walk around the park.
thanks

Nice easy find on a cold Rainny day took coin dropped trackable platypus Smile T4TC
 
15-Jun-12
Our GPS correctly identified the area of the hide as we walked towards GZ. We were very lucky that the cache was dosovered in the first location we explored. Unfortnately the logsheet was very wet. We added a new temporary logbook in its own plastic bag as a temporary measure but maintenance will be required. We then took a few minutes to admire the magnificent trees in this lovely park. TFTC SushiKitten.
 
11-Jun-12
Good hide. Dropped an unofficial tracker. Needs to be maintained.
 
30-May-12
Re searched after last attempt was unsuccessful due to muggling. Lovely park on a warm winter day. TFTC
 
03-May-12
This time the cache was exactly where we thought it should have been. Smile
Had to wait and take photos when a muggle walking his dog stopped and watched me for about 10 minutes. Fortunately the leaves on the trees were changing with lovely autumn colours, so I did get lots of autumnal photos!
Eventually he moved off and I could safely return to GZ and sign log.

Found during a drive around town after work. A very pleasant park and I initialy bypassed GZ as there was a disposable santiary product shoved in the hole. Oh no! as there was no other obvious spot to hide a cache, it was a case of kick the offending item away and hope for the best. Bingo there it was. Cache restored in place and the finding experience should be a little kinder for the next vistor. Many thanks SushiKitten.

Our 5521st overall find.

Found this one after a days working in Orange. A fairly simple find, I think I may have been in this park before for a cache.

Thanks SushiKitten for the cache.

P.S. Should you find a wedding band near this one let me know as it is mine.

Hurray! Finally found one after 3 DNF,s.
I was caching without my usual team and was beginning to think I was a complete failure, so this one was very good for me.
