We were passing through here today and I had seen this cache a while ago, so decided to pick it up. Good spot - unlikely to be muggled. TFTC

Abit hard

Found on drive around the area. Nicely hidden, TFTC

Saw this was on the way home after a day in Matamata. A quick park and grab to round out the day.Interesting reuse of an old bowling green. Another one of those spots I'd likely never see if not for a geocache. TFTC

.

Found with trayc.g on an overnight trip to the Waikato. TFTC

The rain held off again for a quick grab here. Never seen a bowling green used like this before and its great this cache is allowed here for us to find. TFTC

Nice quick find. No muggles around made it easy today. Took a pathtag. Nice big community garden.

Hey that was a really good case, it was very easy to find, because the paint had worn off. Its now harder to find because we put some chemo tape on it thank you very much. Yes we also put a new waterproof log in it.

A quick find as per previous finds not much cover so did the best I can to rehide tftc

On a motorcycle ride. Stopped here after lunch. Easy find thanks

Found on our way back to Auckland after a day visiting Cambridge and Matamata.As the previous finder has noted, there is not much in the way of foliage at the moment so the cache was quickly spotted, although it is still hidden enough from anyone who doesn't know it's there.Not a sign of anyone at the Community Garden today but what a great spot.Thanks suptommy9011.

Easy find today. Theres no foliage to hide so will attempt to reside properly. Tftc.

on a road trip over the hill getting some caches now that I have more time due to retirement. Good to visit these smaller town and enjoy the parks Thanks for all the cache placements TFTC

Met up with a family also caching for a quick find. TFTC.

Thanks for this cache I really enjoyed it.

Thank for the cache. Enjoyed.

On our way home. Worried that the cache might be missing with the pile of raked leaves.But no problems here, searched the first tree and at last found the cache. Took the TBWith rebel98 and littleblackbird1

On our way home, so stopped to find this cache with rustynz and rebel98All quiet at GZ, a fun find, thanks suptommy9011

TFTC! Brought a wizard from Oz; I hope some wants to take him on a gandalfian adventure through Middle-earth.

Thanks for the cache found with DVNKSY

TFTC! This garden needs a good harvest - wow!

Great find, to longer than it should have haha

The community garden concept seems to be growing at a fast rate as can be seen by the number of cities and towns that have them a great idea..thanks for the hide and very sharp co ords made it a fun cache

We weren't successful on another cache, so it was great to be able to find this, nicely tucked in. Thanks also for bringing us to this community garden that I wasn't aware of. Thanks for the placement

Kimbathelion had the honours of finding this one and let out a small screech. A good wee hide. Lots more of leaf litter around. Tftc

Took a while, went round & round. Then I found it where buzzybb had looked.

Night time find for me, on my way back from Matamata

Nice wee hide thanks

Pick this one up on our way home After a very successful day in taurangaWe made hard of this one but got there in the endThanks

Over to Tauranga with ABCDF4 and eyespyben so stopped here on the way home.Made a hash of finding the cache but got there in the end. Thank you for the placement.

Found and had a quick look round the garden. Such a shame, tomatoes just rotting. TFC

Thanks for your amazing cache. I really appreciate the time you took to set up and maintain your caches. Cheers, Cympull.

With Gap (of Fap and Gap)... Our big focus was on attending this months instalment of (February) 18@18. We timed our run into Hamilton to begin in the early afternoon, and we cached along a circuitous corridor into the event.In all of our years of living, we have never ventured this far from the main drag. Waharoa was much bigger than we thought. We arrived at the former bowling greens - now community gardens, and despaired over the state of the pitch. Not much game here anymore, other than this newish cache. The iPhone gps gradually pointed us in the right direction and we did a lap before finding the cache. This hide was good enough to leave a traveller - so we did! Thanks suptommy9011. TFTC.

heading to Hamilton for an 18 18 event.we decided to do a bit of a loop to collect this cache.go hint and co.ords so made for a quick find.TFTC

**#20,675**Have found a few caches over the years in and around the Waharoa district, nice to have an excuse to come back for another find, on our way to the Waikato to drop off a freezer to a family member.A bit of a fossick and soon had the smilie ticked off, thank you for the placement.

Nice place to stop on our way to Matamata.....Out on a caching day with Supernannny and Jag50.

Out with Jag50 and Net61 for a day of geocaching down Te Aroha way.Decided to do a few more near Matamata as we drove home.Thanks and congratulations, suptommy9011 on your first cache placement!Look forward to your finding your other one next time I am in Morrinsville.

On a big days adventure with SN and Net to the Waikato. We parked the car over a big puddle on the driveway, so left it for Net to jump out and find this one as we watched from the car. TFTC

A nice spot tftc

#13,991. I am heading south to Rotorua today but still have time to stop for a couple more caches. Parked close by and wandered into the grounds. Nice easy find here. Signed the logsheet and replaced as found. Thanks suptommy9011 for hiding it here.

Very cool gardens nice easy find!

Hadn't noticed this new cache until about an hour after it was published, but since it is fairly local, I decided to head over to take a look. A neat garden here, just off the main road, and a quick find for [FTF], TFTC
