The gardeners keep removing so have archived.

Hi

It appears that this cache has been inactive for quite some time. Is it going to be replaced or should it be archived to make room for possible future caches? If the cache owner does not contact me within Three Weeks, I'll assume the cache needs to be archived.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,

Regards,
TheCur8or

Several months since CO discussed replacement, still no sign of any maintenance. Time to go.

Had plenty of time to search the area well, sadly nothing to be found.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

I do not think it is there any more

Sorry to log a DNF on this one we will be back log by gsak

The gardeners seem to have removed cache. Will replace when next at park.

Not found

Found it tftc! And thanks dad for the help, he found it quick!!

It was pretty awkward because people were giving me the looks, finally they went and then more people came, when only a couple of people where there I started looking and then... Rain

Had a good hunt but lady doing laps of the park was starting to give me funny looks. Will come back later.

Nice find

Log replaced. Cache waiting to be found

Log is saturated and not writeable.

A quick find, thanks. Log is saturated and, while I managed to make some marks, they're probably not legible. TFTC

Quick find while in area for another cache. I pretended to watch guys chase ball around field while D used me as shield. TFTC 2hoff.

TFTC! Log is soaking wet and barely singable (probably unsignable). Cache itself was quite dry strangely.

Yay! Nice to get a find after a did not find at another location Took us longer than it should, but a log in the book soon came. Thanks for the hide!

Last we looked for this a while ago despite a good search we couldn't put our hands on the cache. Always a muggly spot but this time we found it tucked safely away. TFTC

I came here the other day but couldn't search because of muggles. Today not a soul about. I did see possible hides on my first visit so found immediately upon checking them today. TFTC.

Checked on cache today. It's still there in original hiding spot and waiting to be found

Are my skills failing or has it disappeared?
No luck this morning despite lousy weather keeping muggles mainly out of sight.
Lots of sprayed vegetation, but still some likely places.

Great condition nice place

#1 for us! Yay! Tftc

Found It

Took longer than expected. Got it after widening the search. All good here. TFTC

Took a lot longer than expected. GPS is off.

Good hiding spot.

.

Missed it the first time!! But with the help of my super sleuth students we found it!! TFTC

TFTC it was easy

Good find.

NC 3DD

Easy find

The smallest member of our family found this one! He added a small hamburglar toy that he found in a previous cache and took nothing. He signed his name above ours (Lucas) TFTC!

Found it.
Splitting logs: panamahat_bu new account - was included in log sheet entry lance_bu.
TFTC

Found it! Good hide. Took a while to find but it was worth it in the end. Nice thing on labour weekend. Quiet weeked with a few muggles.

Thank you for the hide. First time visiting the park in 5 years of living in Johnsonville.

finally in the 3rd visit.
Tftc

Tried to find once before with no luck. Found it fairly easily today. Tftc

Awesome find. . .

Kool4kidz club found it hurray

All the action in the football match was at the other end of the field so I was able to quickly carry out my mission.

Out about in Johnsonville. No one around, so decided to collect this one. Think I may use the path around the fields as cycling practice. TFTC

Actually a bit difficult to find directly from the upper path I also wonder if this one needs to be camo'd a bit TFTC

All good here, TFTC

Visited here at the right time. Game was over and the added reassurance of the CO's recent replacement.
Made a straightforward find.
Cache in order; nice fresh log book duly signed, then safely re-hidden, just as found.
Dodging the odd muggle into the bargain.
TFTC found with team cacher Sweet P too
The Turtle strikes again!

cache has been replaced and is waiting to be found!

Had a look today. Cache appears to have been muggled. Will replace in the next few days.

Hunted in all the likely spots but not to be found

First time in this area. Thanks very much for putting this cache here. Haven't seen this kind of playing field before. Cache all good. TFTC

In J'Ville for the Winter Solstice event, good enough reason to go find a few moore caches while we were out and about. TFTC.

Sports were on but the action seemed to be at the opposing end of the field, and the goalie was also looking down in that direction so a quick scrabble in the dirt returned a find. Wind picked up and had a nip, but generally a pleasant find. TFTC

Took a little while but got there in the end

Ended up getting a bit off-track while looking for a different geocache, so I decided to grab this one instead. Lots of muggles chasing a ball around, so I wasn't sure I would be able to grab it. Fortunately, I was able to spot it first with my eyeballs. A short wait for something exciting to happen at the other end of the field and the cache was in my hands. TFTC.

A quick find although a bit of stealth and timing was required due to the soccer practice nearby.

Many thanks for the placement.

Another geocaching day in Newlands. Thanks from Prague =D

Had to wait until practice finished. Thanks

Found in the park like it should be, night time find gas is very accurate on this one

Another rather late log. I found numerous caches around Wgtn and becuase they were not logged on at the time they have been over looked. Again once i found how to get to the vacinity it was fairly straight forward between the walkers that use the track around the field. This is a well laid out area for the community to use. Thank you for the cache and another smiley face.

Found our very first geo cache

Easy find, few muggles around. TFTC

Find in the dark. It add a bit edge to it
TFTC

#1576 The first of my LEAP DAY caches. TFTC

Easy access to GZ. I just had to wait for a couple of mums with push chairs to clear. Thanks

No pen to sign. TFTC

Nice find

No need to climb just head to GZ

Nice and easy had to wait for the walking muggles to be out of sight before going in for the grab! Thanks for the hide

Lovely day for a walk in Johnsonville. TFTC

What a lovely little spot. Love the way they've used astro turf on the field now. Mycro Man loved scooting around the field. Cache in good condition. Thanks for the cache.

Did with Crystal Fairy.

Called here for a quick find while in the area early this evening. Lots of people about but I was able to retrieve and replace the cache without attracting attention. Signed log, TFTC

Took a slight diversion up the gorge on the cycle ride home, a quick and easy find despite a high muggle presence, TFTC 2hoff, #8489

Used to live almost directly across the road so know this park quite well. Today a dot day needed sorting and needed a recently placed cache for a challenge trying to complete so perfect. Quick find luckily as a few people walking about. Found the TB in cache but left it for the next cacher to find. Thanks for the cache.

Nice quick find. All quiet on the playing fields - just a few people exercising and practicing. TFTC.

Found with wicm and dropped of a TB. TFTC, i really enjoyed looking for this cache. ^_^

#1683. Heading north today to Rotorua and needed to find some caches that could be used for a challenge I am working on that totals up the distance travelled. I needed one cache that started in Wellington and this was it. Parked around back of the park and walked through to the GZ. A short search of the likely hiding spots and soon had the cache in hand. Signed the dry log and returned as found. At 7am the park was very quiet. I can see it would be a lot harder at other times. Thanks for the cache.

Cache # 3,025 - a quick find on a windy and somewhat wet day. Three die hard folks practicing their soccer nearby didn't even give me a glance. All well in the cache. TNLNSL. TFTC!

Found with Wafflekitties, TFTC

Had to wait for Phoenix football academy to pack up before claiming. Tftc.

Nice quick find, a game was going on but they were all watching the ball, not us. TFTC

Second of a couple of caches located in Johnsonville early this afternoon whilst in the area on business. Wandered past the artificial turf which was being used by a handful of young footballers. Found the cache without much difficulty, with only one footballer within 50m, and fortunately he clearly wasn’t interested in anything other than perfecting his ball skills. #1019. TFTC.

Yayayayayay out first geocash, can't wait for more!

A damp day so hardly any muggles around. Took selesi and I a while as the GPS was a little off. Eventually found. TFTC

Took longer than it should have but the damp weather kept most muggles away. TFTC

#376. Our first 2016-placed cache, which will be great to enter in our tally for Boxhill's Year-by-Year challenge cache. Good coordinates and hint made for a quick find at GZ Muggles a-plenty though! Tftc.

2nd attempt at this one. 1st attempt aborted due to lingering muggles. Tonight all is clear and a quick retrieval.

I remember fondly playing various sports on this ground in my younger days. Almost brought a tear to my eyes.

Stopped to watch the touch games on nearby. and found this during a pause in play. Dropped one of the TB's I was carrying. Thanks!

Nice easy find: nobody about on a Tuesday morning. Grabbed a trackable. TFTC

Quick find with SJT_NZ, needed to pick our time as a popular spot

Hehe yes I do know Moore ; ) checking off some of the ones near by today. Looks a good park to play around in. Tftc

We originally planned to do some caching further out but a flat tyre meant change of plans. Found a couple of caches within walking distance. Nice little hide.

A quick find with TregearP.

All in good order, TNLNSL, TFTC.

Quite a lot of muggles on the pitch this afternoon, but all of them were too busy on training to take any notice of me. Cache has had quite a few visitors today. TFTC

so close to home and bumped into my first lot of fellow cachers

Found after dinner and bumped into jillbea who arrived at the same time (pleasure to meet you). A quick find and sign and none of the people on the pitch took any notice - TFTC !

Bit of a blustery old night, but couldn't resist making a first day find on a cache so close to home. TFTC

A quick find but stealth and subterfuge and patience required. What a great sports area. Dropped off TB. Tftc.
