No response from cache owner.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed, and it is time to have it listed once again it will be no problem as long as it still meets the guidelines. Just drop me a note( by email at Mongo@geocachingadmin.com) and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and I am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
Mongo

Geocache Description:

As we start the summer of 2011, the 13-year cicadas are in full song (and all over this park). Enjoy them while they last... This cache should be easy to access ... if you follow the right paths to get there. My 4- and 6-year olds both wanted to make a cache so there are 2 rubbermaid containers at the cache location. This cache is in Schroeder Park - park at the playground parking lot.

The 13-year cicadas were last here in 1998 when they coincided with the 17-years for quite a cacophony. Cicadas live most of their life underground as nymphs, then dig an exit tunnel up through the ground, climb up a tree, molt their skin, and live a few loud weeks until they mate and lay eggs in a tree limb.
