I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in a prior reviewer note.
Hi Metal-art
This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).
I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.
Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.
Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Had a quick look but couldn't find it
Also a game was on so there were a lot of muggles around. I'll Come back another time.

Came down while no one was around and still felt weird hanging around a…. You know what(if you’ve found it). Another great find and we’ll hidden
Quick find on a short walking tour while our car gets a new head gasket. Thanks metal-art.
#1889. I need a cache for my ongoing streak, and having recorded a DNF down by the river, I headed for this oldie at the Petone Football Club. Nice easy park and walk and grab - oh that all caches were this easy. Loved the hint.
Tftc Metal-art.

True to his word, albeit probably taking longer than he anticipated, the Seagnoid replaced the cache this evening. Part of that reason would be the difficulty of being at GZ without anyone else also being there and wondering why anyone would be so interested in that location!
I came along to provide transport and to log 1 Trad for my day. So all is good to go again with this cache.
Thanks for setting it up.

It’s always nice when jgirl1880 comes to visit and wants to geocache! Exploring a few new areas today
Out for lockdown exercise, got this one today.
Needs maintenance! Was found out on the ground near cache site, very damaged and very wet. Re-hidden as best as possible.

After checkng out of my motel, I had some spare time before I had to head to the ferry for the trip to Picton. I managed to find a few caches along the way. As noted by other loggers the container needs some TLC or a replacement. Luckily the log was intact enough to sign. TFTC, Biggles.
I am supposed to find a size "other" puzzle but all the size other puzzles up in the Belmont hills are missing. I'm talking to the CO about that, but in the meantime I still need a size "other" and a puzzle cache.
So I found a puzzle cache and came here for the "other". Took a lot of hunting! The cache is squashed flat, but I was still able to extract the log. This explains why the bin will not properly latch shut, which also means that the rubbish collector dude may investigate and dispose of the cache,,, hmm. I have a lot of magnets - I'll replace it with a un-crushed version and move it so that the bin latches properly so that the rubbish collector dude will not try to find it. Hopefully tomorrow, assuming no crowds.

Not one for a busy Saturday. No one around here today. Quick find. All good here.TFTC
I had never been to this park before even though we have friends who live in Bracken Street. The park was in full swing this afternoon with a number of soccer games on. Senior men's league I think. Once I figured out where the cache would most likely be, I sat down on the grass and prentend to take a stone out of my shoe and as I looked there it was. So the log book has been signed and the cache is nicely back in its spot all ready for the next geo-hunter. Thanks heaps for taking the time to set up this cache. I really appreciate your efforts in doing so. As I stood up I witnessed a great long range attempt on goal... so close! TFTC
In Petone for a ten pin bowling tournament, time to find some more caches, soon had cache in hand. All good here and replace as found. Thanks Metal-art for the cache.
Found cache after consideration of info, logs, and a brief hunt. Container is very sick, needs replacing, although log still dry. Tftc!
Found on a lovley day. Log all dry even if the tin looks like it has had a hard life. Thankfully no muggles or could have been tricky. All nice and tidy around the GZ
One of three caches located today on a Sunday afternoon walk around the sports fields and the golf course. Fortunately there was no-one near when we were there. It was a quick find. #3444. TFTC.
I have a 3 month sabbatical mostly traveling around the planet. My goal is to find and log 1000 caches. New Zealand is my 4th station traveling from south Christchurch to north Auckland, my first visit here, its far away. This is my sabbatical-cache #758, luckily no muggels around.
Found it the second time we came back and had to use car keys to pry it from its spot, super rusty container but thats probably because its been there since 2014 atleast!
The container looks as though it has been run over at some stage. Unlike the previous finders I found it easy to detach from its hiding spot. Thanks for the placement.
Not a Football family, so good to come to a place that we wouldn't normally. Kids becoming too competitive to each find a cache so it's home time.
Quick find with eldest son, glad I didn't have to retrieve the cache, signed the logbook which doesn't seem to be in chronological order, but I don't suppose that matters, TFTC
Sent mr 8 down low for this one. The container has seen better days but the log was dry.
Found with 12YO after his game ( they won 8-0) Managed to un squash the cache and extract the log. TFTC
Container is bashed up and not openable, or I've got a redherring and this "found" needs to be removed.
Love the way the cache fits in so well with the object it is attached to. A lot of work has gone into looking the way it is.
Only one person at the ground, a man wind bathing not far from GZ. Like sun bathing but in a strong NWer.
TFTC, cheers

Finally caching up on logs been overseas. Enjoyed our caching during the Mega. TFTC
found on our walk around the park area. Lots of muggles out enjoying the nice day....Signed as Taniwha8 - caching with Dodge1923, Remaker13, Riser5, Daffy NZ. Thanks for the cache
No plastic bag but perfectly dry Just shows you how a protected but well ventilated hiding spot is about the ideal place Well done TFTC
