Time to put this one to bed thanks everyone that came to the event in spite of the strong wind, and a special thank you to Tomstache for the masterful MC duties and to the Glanville Girls for the delicious cupcakes. Until next year in a new great location!

Thanks for organising this event, it was such a pretty little spot and great company

Cheers, attended with Geniejoan. TFTE

Thanks Wozzle for organising this event and still going ahead in spite of the horrid weather warnings!

Thanks for this event wozzle68. It was nice to see the falls and enjoy some yum morning tea and have a chat

Thank you wozzle68 for organizing this event, I have been here many times, in fact, this is the location that 6hinemoa2 & myself had our first taste of geocaching a long time ago,

The last time I was at Sailors Falls there was no water flowing, but things were very different today. I enjoyed taking notes of the recently published earthcache here while catching up with like-minded cachers.
A great sunny morning to be out caching.
Thanks for organizing this get-together, wozzle68.

The perfect spot to celebrate International Earthcache Day,
A great opportunity to put faces and family to names we have only known on line.

Here....

Won't be able to make it Wayne, sorry, sounds like an interesting venue. Family lunch has cropped up.

Am on the way...

A friend called me earlier this morning asking for help with his fence which I thought would be a quick fix. The wind is a bit epic! Hopefully, wozzle68 I'll get to catch up with you another time soon

Lovely to catch up with known faces and meet some new (to me) faces. Thanks for hosting wozzle....

Ripper event at a ripper spot, thanks for organising wozzle68, this is a great tradition. So pleased to get an Earthcache nearby too. Great lollies and fab cupcakes, great prizes, thanks again.

Attended by The Empire
Thanks for the great event wozzle68 and thanks to Tomstache for retrieving my name first from the bucket! Looks like I've gotta find a place to hide the great prize/cache.

What a great Event this was. Thanks wozzle68 well done. Got to meet some legends in "Bunjil" Thanks for the trackable. , "Mudbrick" and "maccamob, thanks for the pathtag."
Was lucky enough to win a Cache prize. This will be used to place our first hide. Hello to everyone else who attended and logged my trackable patch.

Thanks for organising this event Wayne. Attended on this wild and windy day with Beckster22.

Despite threats of windageddon this event went off without a hitch. With Glanville Girls cupcakes in hand it was good to have a good catchup with friends. Thanks for organising Wozzle.

Thanks Wozzle for another fantastic event, it was great to see everyone there, and learn a few more things. The weather wasn't as windy as expected (yet). thanks for bringing us to a lovely area.

It was a bit of an effort to even leave the house for this event but we managed to make it not TOO long after it had started.
Always great to see a waterfall in full flow too. Thanks for the event Wozzle.

Today's plan was for the geo family to make our way up to this event at Sailor's Falls for Earth Cache Day. The CO and myself will no doubt be inundated with emails about logging EC's on this special day of the year. It was a great event, so many people and some great morning tea that was provided. A great spot that we had not visited before, the reason for the trip. It was a shame the walkway was closed for a better look at the falls but we will come back so we can check them out. Great to see water flowing too

**Thanks to wozzle68 for putting on this great event** [^]

Great event for this Earthcache Day with one close by. Fantastic effort by the cook on those stupendous cup cakes. Thanks wozzle

Here with master 5 on a windy morning. Nice to catch up with fellow cachers and swap stories. Many thanks for organising

Oh and the cakes were amazing! I think Luke ate about 5 of them!!! Ha ha

Thanks for the Event!

Good to see everyone here who were enjoying, chatting, and tasting the pump water and also delicious cupcake.
Thanks wozzle68.

Attended this event with my 2 children on one of my frequent trips to Ballarat. It was a little windy but much windier in Ballarat later in the day. Thanks for organizing this event wozzle68!

Finally met Claybol which was terrific also Bunjil. Nice to catch up on a windy day on my way to Geelong. Looking forward to the next event.

Such a pity that so many attractions were blocked by rain damage

Thanks wozzles68 for the great event .

Mary & David were there. Made sure we had this Event on our calendar ages ago. Able to celebrate Earthcache Day with your Earthcache and Event, and have a second Event later today as well. You know how much we love the social side of caching. Haven't seen so much water over the falls for ages, and we've been coming here since well before we started caching. A pity the stairs are out of action so we can't see them from lower down. Great to catch up with everyone and to hand Dux back after all his travels to Uncle Wozzle for his next adventure. Delighted to win a prize, meet some new teams, and enjoy Michelle's low cal Masterchef cup cakes. Returned Dux to his rightful owner. Our thanks to wozzle68.

The weather is being kind to us so far, it slightly cool with wind but I am seeing sunny breaks.

A tentative will attend. Will just see how the weather goes.

I'll will be there.

Thanks for the heads up about the weather. I am most reluctant to be in that area when it is windy, so unfortunately I will no longer be attending this event. Sorry and hope all goes well.

Seems like a great place to be. Will try to get there
