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

----------

Hi there Cache Owner,

This cache has come to my notice as there is a 'Needs Maintenance' log that that indicates there is some sort of issue with the placement and it needs your attention please.

Check out the Guidelines here: [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable the cache**](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) within 14 days,** 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:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked 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 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 (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**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.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will unfortunately have to de-list (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 information/advice posted above.

right out in the open, covered it up best we could.
It's been ages since I was able to cache in my home town, being home for the School holidays I noticed some new caches had been placed around.
Corowa has a wetlands precinct? WTH? Realised on arrival that it has always been swampy her and that was more a dam with a couple of bird hides and a path, muggle brother actually help build some of the structures.
The Pelicans were noisy and great to see.
TFTC Richie3Blue3Geokids much appreciated. Found in the company of GeoGranni

Cute. Thanks.
 
10-Nov-17
The last one of my day before heading back home.
I decided on this one to finish as it involved a nice stroll down to the water's edge for a quiet search and a look around the area so when we are back we can check it out further with the kids.
I parked in Whitehead St and trekked down to GZ. The lake looked wonderful and very inviting.
At GZ a couple of hiding spots were checked before I finally located the tricky little hide.
SL at 2.15pm.
This was my 900th find and a good one to celebrate the milestone. TFTC Richie3Layla3Emma.

#2695 Made our way around the lake foreshore from the previous cache. The geohounds decided it was warm enough for a dip, and they loved it! Probably the first time they have had a swim in 5-6 months we guess. Mrs BGF spotted this cache quickly and we enjoyed a sit down admiring the surprising amount of birdlife around here, including 2 black swans. Thanks again R3B3G Smile

Lovely to find this little one
 
17-Aug-17
The weather was looking a bit iffy, so we dropped one car off for a service, and headed to Corowa for a few quick caches, and to brush up on our European languages.
We do seem to have arrived at the lake. Not a lot of birds today, I guess they are spoilt for choice with all this water lying around the countryside.
A bit breezy and it fells a bit like rain atm.
Thanks, Robmc.

#12441. It seems winter isn't over yet. With an icy blast and rain continuing Robmc and I decided to head back Corowa way to find some more of the recently published caches. We were fortunate to beat the rain and managed to collect another 19 smilies today.

We zeroed in on the likely spot and soon had the nasty nano to hand. Added our names and veered left.

Thanks Richie3Blue3Geokids

Found while out doing a few caches on a nice sunny day.
 
05-Aug-17
Our tweezers were a great help here, but alas the container came apart in our hands. We had no glue to repair it, but we did have a replacement container in our vehicle. We were able to transfer the log sheet to the new container and SL at 9.51am #4739 Thanks for forgiving us for destroying your great idea Richie3Layla3Emma
