###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###
----------
I notice from one or more log entries that this cache would seem to be in need of some help - **there appears to be a need for owner intervention.**
Therefore, the cache is being temporarily disabling so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
The guidelines indicated that regular visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) I cannot see any log that indicates a recent visit by the CO to this cache.
If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.
**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) by 5th August,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?
You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:
- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.
- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**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.
- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (by 5th August). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.
You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, it is likely that I will need to Archive it on the basis that it has been abandoned. Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then.
Please don't send me an email but instead follow the instructions posted above.

No luck today, might need to be checked by CO due to a number of dnf on this 'easy' cache.
I didn't hold much hope for finding this one but thought I'd have a quick look anyway. No luck
Couldn't find it today. ...maybe because every rock at GZ was covered with autumn leaves.
A quick find this morning. I had to come to Horsham for work so left a little earlier to explore the town via its caches. What a beautiful town. Gorgeous river, gardens, buildings and people. A lovely town all round (I might be back more often too)! Many thanks for the cache.
What a lovely spot! We found it on a warm Sunday while camped nearby. Needs a new lig which we have no soares of. Tftc
Found cache but it’s been water logged. The log book has deteriorated beyond recognition.... needs urgent maintenance. TFTC
Found it on dusk as we stumbled back to the caravan park. We’ll have to check the gardens out in the morning light. Log was very wet, probably needs replacing.
After a bit of a search, we were able to add another smile to our map. Thanks onefatporker for bringing us to these gardens.
Hi there onefatporker.
We found your cache **"Guilfoyle's Horticultural Legacy"** at 10:51:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 16278).
We started the day off by nominating a cache some distance away from our camp site and then took a route that was mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route.
We found 15 caches today & DNF'd 0. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** We replaced the log.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards

Out for a day in Horsham and decided to take the geokidlets on a bit of an explore. Fifth find for the day another chalked up to D. TFTC
As we arrived at GZ I asked why it looked familiar. Kenare said because we had been here before! We had it found in no time at all. tftc
Kenbryl, Sean.75, Mippy05 and I all headed out for a walk around the gardens (and of course grab a cache). It's such a lovely place! Tftc
Found with kenare, kenbryl and Mippy05 while we were staying at the caravan park. After having a quick look, kenare found the hide only to hand the log to me and then realise that none of us had a pen. So of she went back to the van and got a pen. Cigc. Tftc
Nice quick find with my grandsons on a beautiful sunny afternoon the log is in a really bad state and needs replacing. I did manage to sign a scrap of paper TFTC

More Botanic Gardens that have a Guilfoyle connection. Arrived at GZ and find the container after a short search. Nicely hidden and a nice pleasant morning in the Gardens. TFTC
Found It!
Nice park and a surprising quick find! Sometimes you get lucky...

While visiting Horsham to unfortunately attend a funeral we decided to look for a few caches while we had an hour or two to spare.
We enjoyed our short visit to the Botanic Gardens and made a quick find here.
Many thanks for the hide onefatporker[^]

Straight forward find where you'd expect it to be. Log is soggy as others stated - too wet to take out and sign
Found it. The question was which one? Lovely spot thanks for the cache paul and brenda.
Lovely gardens and a nice place for a cache. No muggles and a convenient seat nearby made signing easy. But log is very wet and needs replacing. Tftc
Found today while spending the day cruising around the Wimmera bagging caches.
Managed to get 35 finds for the day... with too many DNF's
No problems finding the cache but the place was awash with footy fans for the finals!!

Travelling with TrudyJane, had to look for this one as we had previously found the one at the Volcano in Melbourne Botanic Gardens. Log very wet.
Found on this cold and wet day. Only workers gardening slowly here. Great trees, many thanks for the cache.

Staying in Horsham on this long weekend, 88andy88 and I got on the bikes today to explore the Wimmera.
Just about turned them all over. TFTC!

Found @10:35 AM #2012 OzHockeyChick and I planned this trip away to grab some of our LGA challenge regions and to just see some more of Victoria and it's awesome caches. This was day 3:
This one we were quite lucky in finding quickly. Could see how this one could of taken longer.

A quick and easy find in a lovely park as we cache our way around Horsham today. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Took us a little bit but enjoyed the hunt. Nifty little cache, thanks! Was there a bit earlier tonight with SRR84 and our fluffy companions
As I said to CPwanderer..."this is how a pro does it", as I put my hand on it immediately and flipped over the correct rock! Hahaha - it maybe was just luck, but funny all the same given I have only been caching for 5 months, and he was has been for six years with 12000+ finds!
Day 3 of 3 - Found whilst on a road trip with CPwanderer and Locus Cache from Adelaide to Wedderburn, Victoria. The aim of the trip was to attend "A Day Out in Wedderburn 2016" all day caching event (TICK [^] ) and then enjoy the Evening Meal event (TICK [^] ).
During this weekend we found some fun and creative caches and caught up with our Victorian geofriends once again.
The funny one-liner comments flowed all weekend and my belly hurt from all of the laughter!! [:o)] [^].
Unfortunately we had a minor car accident Friday night whilst traveling to Wedderburn [B)] - lost control of the vehicle (fortunately we were traveling very slowly) and we got bogged on a wet and slippery Victorian country dirt road [xx(] ...ummmm.....at the time we may have been heading toward a possible gold which we missed , however we did eventually get out of the mud after a long wait and exchanging a fair bit of cash [:(!].
I LOVE geocaching [:X], but I HATE mud [:(!]!! LOL
Thanks for the cache

Was down this way today with some time to kill with GeoYogster. So we just had to turn on some smiley faces. TFTC and keep on Caching.
GoodLook had this one in seconds ..... great skill or blind luck .......????!!!! Found with locuscache and Goodlook on a weekend in Victoria. The main aim of the trip was to attend the Old Blokes events in Wedderburn and to grab as many of the caches in the area. We also found quite a few on the way there and the way home and had some “interesting” experiences 4WD ing on some back tracks!
