Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. 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/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 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.

This cache really needs to be archived or maintained by CO.
We'd rather the maintained option as such a nice location

Unsure how the previous catchers logged a find as renovations mean the cache is obviously long gone ...... if it was on/near the power box... that has gone.
This one has been compromised.
The place it was attached to has been taken down

We found it! Unfortunately there were some hidden rusty thumbtacks in the box which we removed in case someone hurts themselves
Nice quick find between groups of school kids. Magnets will need replacing soon.
The power was not mine today. First of 4 not found. GPS took me to the middle of grass. Also made the mistake of picking up the bag of poo. Muggle free day
What a great park for the kids, we will have to come back with the push bikes, scooters and basket ball!! Thanks for showing us this park. TFTC!!
This was too easy with the hint & good co-ords! We decided to only look at the hint & logs if we couldn't find our target within 10 minutes. Recalled playing netball & hockey - badly, when we were at high school! Brother remembered seeing mullet in the drain many, many years ago. SLTN TFTC
A tour with the Family was cut short by the Mozzies 
but I took a car home by myself to do some caching on the way.
Lots going on on this sports field, an active muggle population around here.

TFTF! It's interesting to note that the cache is still here and kicking, despite this being a VERY muggle heavy area... well done! Took a dolphin and left a bookmark 
Out with the wife and son, we came to this park. Didn't realise there was only open fields, no play equipment.
Had some fun running around and such. In fact we had a ball. Quick find (with the hint).
Thanks for the getting us out and about!

Played in this park when I was a kid. Still a nice park. No hockey here anymore. What a shame. TFTC.
Walked in the dark along the river and managed to find the cache quickly with the glow of the GPSr (forgot to bring a torch).

Gps gave some issues but once working nice easy find. Got to waych some cricket too.
We thought we might need to get our feet wet but we didn't - needs a new log TFTC
Checked into my hotel near the beach then went for a quick recon drive to find the office I’d be attending a training course at over the next week. While I had this cache in my PQ to grab at some point, realised it was virtually across the road and I may as well cross it off the list today as a quick find.
TaurusSix and I came by this way and found this cache. There was a netball comp going on around the corner but we were pretty much out of sight.
Nice easy find on my lunch break. Lovely park, very nice spot to sit nearby.
Ahhh memories!
Log requires replacement.
