4.23. Unarchiving a Geocache

The archiving of a geocache is intended to be a permanent status. That is why only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ staff have the capability to unarchive it. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if it meets the current Geocache Listing Guidelines.

If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance it will not be unarchived.

Geocache Description:

This church was ministered by the Brotherhood of St. Boniface, which was stationed in Williams from 1911 to 1929. To honour their work, the Quindanning Anglican church was named after their patron when it was consecrated in 1956. The church is constructed of stone carted from local properties by members of the church; the estimated cost of the building at the time of its construction was 4,600 pounds.

St Boniface church is located in Quindanning a small town located halfway between Boddington and Williams along the Pinjarra-Williams Road.

The town is named after Quindanning Pool, located along the Williams River. The name is of Aboriginal origin, and was first recorded in 1835 when it was discovered by Alfred Hillman. Low-level agricultural settlement occurred in the 1830s. By 1900, a school and racecourse had been built and in 1907 a townsite was surveyed and gazetted around it.

The cache is on the church property and visitors are welcome onto the property and to visit the church. Please cover the cache up carefully after you have finished. Watch out for Muggles as you can be seen easily.

The cache is a sestema container, with notebook and pencil. It contains an assortment of swappable items.

Congratulations to SteKer54 - F.T.F. - October 4th, 2010.

Also try to bring out your own caches to this area, as there are a number of other sites within the town and nearby that a cache can be placed at.

The Quindanning Hotel is right next door and is a very popular stop for lunch and dinner.
