###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.
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) 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 22nd July,** 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 22nd July). 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.

Found it fairly easily following the instructions. Attempted to access log, but as stated too wet and fragile. Without maintenance don’t bother opening tube. TFTC
Out and about with 08151605 to get a few smilies. Hadn't been out here before so it was great to cache in a new area. With intermittent showers and rain, it was a gloomy and grey day.
Thankfully a quick find as the rain was just starting again thanks BaLuke

I went on a morning jog this Saturday morning from Edendale Farm to Marngrook and back. I came back for a second look having thoroughly read the description. I think the information about Marngrook is interesting and it would have been a real sight to see if I could go back in time, especially down at a great place like Pound Bound.
The cache
I properly read the last couple of lines in the description. It led me straight to the place I needed. I found the cache and and signed my name. The logbook is damp and due to be replaced. Thanks for the cache and history BaLuke!

Quick find, together with Parkermon. Impossible to get the log out though, as it has gotten wet. Posting a pic as proof instead.
TFTC and for the history lesson. Very very cool.

Found with Exportswede. Quick find thanks to the great description, but couldn't remove log as it was a bit damp and didn't want to damage. Thanks for the important history lesson and a great cache ^_^
Out for the usual day, early start, late finish, memorable adventures with SimsFamily and Neville Devil.
This was where we were realising "winter is coming" not the warm starts we've become accustom to.
The Fun Run was attracting an ever bigger crowd, parking was quickly becoming tricky.
Log signed and replaced as found
Thanks for the Cache

With a mega early start to the day leaving home before the sun was up. The days plans were to get Ausfox;'s 4000th find. He had picked Gollum's Cave for the milestone cache but needed to find 9 more before that. So with a slight detour he saw this nice cluster of 7 easily reachable caches to get that little bit closer to the his goal.
As we got out to cross the road to GZ the cold hit us full force. It was bitterly cold with some frost on the grass and all.
Even around this side of the oval parking was becoming a nightmare with the Saturday morning fun runners.
Neville_devils eagle eye had this one in a flash allowing us to get away form th efun runners before they started to question our presence.
Thank you Baluke for a nice little series

Out in the area on this public holiday to clean up some caches on my to do list.
Really is the best time of year for this type of hide.
Easily spotted.
Cheers for the cache

Out with Lionlord for a few local(ish) caches to see what we could find.
A muggle in a car parked nearby nearly spoiled the fun here, but LL was up to the challenge and the cache was soon in hand.
Thanks BaLuke for the fun here today.

Out with Eli's Patrol. He found it first again . He hopes one day I will find one first . Interesting placement . Did not see it for a while . Persistence beats resistance once again . TFTC
Have parked almost next to this cache once a month for the past 2 years. It's only recently I thought I'd check for caches on work days as well as rest days! A quick cache before doing some work. Hardest part of getting this one was avoiding the attention of the sporty people doing aerobics in the hall and the ones running around the oval and up the hill. Thanks
A nice easy walk up and grab. This cache has a prime spot to watch the footy. TFTC.
Sent Crustyvarmit on a wild goose chase while I snuck in and found this one. TFTC.
Had a very pleasant day out today with Crusty K9 and Mr and Mrs Bunadoorian. We found this cache. Thanks for the cache, and the good company.

Staying in Diamond Creek for the weekend so took the opportunity to grab a few early morning caches. This was a quick find with some interesting history.
Thanks baluke for placing & maintaining the cache for us to find.

We found this cache today at 2:25pm as number 13 of 31 on our Eltham Exploration Afternoon II. One of our quickest finds for the day as we spotted it coming down the hill towards it. We need some like this. Thanks from D & H B-A.
Out for a bit of a drive today with the family, and I noticed we were going through a LGA I needed for my LGA Challenge....this cache had an interesting story and some good info, so I jumped out and grabbed it. A quick find made all whilst camoed from the people on the oval. TFTC
Haha Dad and I found out that the color is silver and it's a great place to watch the cricket!

I was in Diamond Creek for a wedding and had some time to kill in the time between the service and reception when the main party headed off for photos. Most people went to the pub but I couldn't resist taking the time to check out a few local caches. This was my second in this series along the creek. No body around at this oval so I was able to park nearby and look in peace. Pretty lucky to spot this one quickly. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache baluke.

As there were a few people around by the bridge, we decided to bypass that cache for the moment, and come to this one. These caches aren't usually my strong point, and today it took a bit of a look to spot this one. TFTC

Suscoe's 4th find of the morning.
The oval was being mowed as we arrived at GZ.
So as he went that way we retrieved the cache.
Signed and rehidden as he went that way again.
Thanks to baluke for a nice spot here.

I was muggled out of this one quite some time ago, however today the coast was clear despite there being lots of cars parked. Got to GZ and looked at the hint only to find that I had been looking right at the cache without seeing it. Love the Marngrook footy show.
