I was in Wollongong for some family commitments. After dropping off youngest at a friends house, I had two hours to do a bit of caching. I had fun, but did miss my wingman Finalf29. I found four and the numbers I needed to solve another.

This was my first for the morning. Found quickly as the hint was one I had seen before. Sadly someone had used behind the water tank as a toilet, but thankfully not near GZ. The cicadas were loud, but hey that is the beautiful sound of summer. Thanks

Out on a day-trip cycle-caching around the Cataract Dam area but finished the day down at the Figtree area. So to keep with the Scouting theme, visited this cache as as last of the day.
Tally for the day, 26 finds, 1 DNF, 1 revisit.

Plans were set in place with fitzy_1965 for a weekend caching mission around the Illawarra region Big Grin We had a great time nabbing a whole bunch of caches with the only disappointment being the high number of DNF's due to missing containers Sad

It was evening by now so it was on with the torches and off we went to make the easy find at GZ Cool

Thanks for the hide, Hoojar Smile

11849. Found during a weekend caching trip to Wollongong with specimenX. Overall a great weekend with the only downer being the high number of DNFs - especially around the lake.

A plan was hatched for specimenX and myself to visit Wollongong this weekend to attempt the SES (those that we have solved anyway - we have a few left for next time) and LIPT series plus others. We arrived in Wollongong last night inorder to get an early start on the trail today. Next find for the day. As it was getting dark now we started back to the Motel with just a few more planned around this area before getting dinner. Walked in for a quick find at GZ. Log signed, cache returned and we continued on our way to the next one.

Thanks again Hoojar !! A bit more cover at this one !

**Needing a Cache for my streak, using Cachly App, I noticed that I had DNF this cache 2yrs ago. So it was time to avenge the DNF. Quick find today, I was sure I checked this area last time... Haha**

22-Apr-16
The coords being off a bit made this a bit tougher, meaning i stupidly crawled all the way to the other side of the building and looked for 10 minutes until realizing I didn't need to go through all that trouble Haha! TFTC!

11-Oct-15
Nice clue and cache location. I had to do some searching high & low as it doesn't show the correct location on the app. A pen is handy.

Easy find on our way home from caching at Mt Keira. This park is close to where we are house sitting, should have done it earlier. Now, to the multi close by.....

Thanks Hoojar.

Wombat the Anthus Laptop Geocoin visited, as did Runciple's Grasshopper and his little brother, a tassie trekkers pathtag, a sweet & sour pathtag, a grannysmith pathtag, a geo achievement 500 cahes award, an F14 Tomcat, a sctoch and sode, a monkey a BIG O, a christmas tree, a vespa and a boomerang, oh, and a bundle of keyrings that I have collected since caching in WA in August 2013 (current count is 25)

I parked at the nearby amenities block and walked up but realised afterwards that I could have driven right up to the door if I had wanted to. A ladies fitness group had just finished their class and all stood in the carpark chatting forever while I waited for them to clear off so I could look around. After a lap of the building I realised I could have reached GZ undetected by the ladies if I'd only known. TFTC.
 
23-May-15
It is s shame to think this building may not be used anymore. The grounds are lovely and were used by a ladies fitness group this morning.
Left a star to shine

Juno and I did a check tonight. Access to the cache is still available, however that may change in the future.

Happy hunting.
 
07-May-15
I am lead to believe that access to this location has changed. Taking offline until I can confirm.

I walked right around the hall, twice. I finally found it the second time. Lots of people playing on the field, but I was out of sight, so had no worries signing the log, just when I was searching the wrong side of the building.
Thanks for the sneaky little cache (I hope you got permission to place it there)!
 
30-Dec-14
