Hi tweetster,

If not already disabled I have disabled this cache because it has been reported as possibly missing or being in need of maintenance as indicated by its low health score. By now you should have received an email from HQ indicating that your cache may need some attention. I am following up on those emails to see if the required maintenance has been completed. At this time I am asking that you, as the cache owner, make a physical check on the cache and leave a note on the cache page in regards to its status.

If you have completed the needed maintenance feel free to post an owner maintenance log and enable the cache again. I will check back in a few weeks and if there has been no response to the needed maintenance and I have not heard anything from you, I will be archiving the cache at that time.

For tips about how to perform maintenance and to learn why Geocaching HQ sends occasional geocache maintenance reminders, please see this Help Center article, https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713

Thanks
