The hint was pretty specific, but no sign of it. After so many DNFs, could the owner please confirm it's still here.
Went looking for this one after school to get TB to take to OZ but didn't find cache. Looked everywhere and were sure we were in correct spot. Is it still there??

A quick find early this morning with no one around. Had attempted to retrieve the cache some time ago, but tennis-playing muggles prevented it. Thanks.

Nice little spot. Had no idea there were tennis courts around here, despite driving past it dozens of times.

Just had the log signed and cache replaced as a whole family of muggles turned up to play on the courts.

Spotted the possible GZ as we were arriving but had to take care as muggles on court. Quick find T4TC.
Was straightforward enough but had to use stealth to avoid the muggles on the court. Didn't spot a TB or coin in there though.

Had driven past this spot on numerous occasions on the way to other caches and always had muggles using the courts. Today was no exception, but only this time on the way back past it was empty and I hurriedly signed the log before anyone came along.
TNLN. Cheers.

Quick and easy find for Team GeoDutch. Liempdma had already found this, so he left it to me.
Found this about a month ago, however only just found the scrap of paper that I wrote the names of all the caches I found on that day.

Today, we were on our way together with tofska on an East-Auckland-Caches-Powertour.
This cache was nearly visible from the place we parked at.
Seems that the people in the "structure" know about it.
Took: Gingerbread GC
Left: Something non-TB/GC

Kissie's Hogwild Gold Coin is in this cache. This coin is in a race for miles or placements and right now is in first place for miles. The second place coin is very close, within 1,000 miles. The race is over July 15 so if someone finds this cache, PLEASE pick up this coin and move it along for us! Thanks!
Got this coin out of Portal to Land of Oz just before it was muggled. Dropped here but anticipate seeing movement.
Found it in the rain before meeting friends at a Thai restaurant nearby. Good, easy, handy hide. Thanks.
Took brownie patch. It's been a long time since I was a brownie in USA.
Left 3 trackables . . . . so the cache is quite full!

This one was all too easy.dont know if its supposed to be just sitting by the doorway though?
Our Brownie found by accident a few months back, so thought we'd sign up and find it officially this time. Nice cache, good spot, though needed to avoid the curious tennis players.

Found the location easily, but the grab was made somewhat difficult by the nearby tennis game. Eventualy took a chance and got the log signed. Very nice cache. TFTC.
Just before dashing off to Fathers for xmas family festivities.
Time to go and find this cache.
easy to find.
Noted a few badges in there-im an ex scout from my younger days.
Log book nearly full so need to look at replacing real soon

In response to Glyn, and as one who helps maintain this cache...the text of the cache page tells all.... This is a cache placed by the Rangers, the senior branch of GGANZ (Girl Guides - they come in Pippins, Brownies, Guides, Rangers and leaders) They placed the cache, and are watching it. Geocaching is now recommended to Scouting & Guiding as an activity...
We're the Rangers, .........

The Rangers meet on Friday evenings during the school term, if anyone is visiting the cache during their meetings they would love a knock on the door and a 'hi'
#42 of 44 for today.
Was a bit dubious about the location, but managed to grab it. Nice to see the guide badges here....I am planning an almost identical cache in front of my daughter's cub hall back home in Melbourne...they just put a metal (i.e. magnetic cache) ramp in. TFTC

19:10 - We attempted this one earlier, but the courts were full of kids. Also dubious about the location, wouldn't want to attempt this when the girl guides are using the building. Thanks for the cache. TNLN.
A few disgruntled rumbles from inside the caching machine when we realised where the cache was. I hope that the cache owner has told, or is involved with the Guides as we felt uncomfortable going near a place like this (old men wandering around a girl Guides den with strange hand held devices!), Anyway, mission done--TNSLLNTFTCACHE!!
forgot to log this one found it a couple of weeks back anyway, nice cache easy find cheers

Lots of muggle activity on the tennis courts, but they were all busy with their games. The cache was acquired swiftly.

nice easy find, on holiday from south island & had local friends in tow to introduce the fun...& find a few auckland caches, tftc a few swaps added.
Would almost qualify as a sister cache for "1st Taupo Scout Swap Badge" cache, and a very similar hide as well.
Nice quick find, TNLNSL, many thanks.

Was a quick find. A couple of tennis playing muggles, but they looked like they were really into their game so no worries there. TNLNSL
Have been here before a few times with Butterfly_Lady, and today we called in again to make a swap. Picked up the Slovakia Geocoin, and dropped off Moomi the cow from the Waikato for a visit.
Heeeey,FOUND! This is my first cache in New Zealand and first I`ve discovered alone

A nice easy find while on holiday in Auckland. Lots of cool badges but we had none to swap, so TNLN. Had a look at the coin but decided to leave it in New Zealand.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Was once a Ranger with Waipaparoa, so thought the theme of the cache was great. Should have bought along some swaps. Nice easy find. Took my father along for the ride and he could well be another convert to the game. Left Commando man and smiley skier. Took a badge for the blanket.
This was my 7th for the day. A couple of muggles were giving me a bit of an eye-up but were satisfied, I think, that I was inspecting the decking for the Scout group.
Swapped TBs.
In: World Express TB
Out: Kiwi Chef TB.
Cheers for the cache.
