K_Wolf: Unfortunately this one has been vandalised at least 4 times now ... I don't think there is any point to fix it again.

Geocache Description:

An very simple, but fun-for-the-whole-family "Park Here at Night" cache.
The easiest cache in the series and likely the easiest night-cache you'll ever find - a torch helps but is optional.

This is a night-time only cache. The Beacon is eco-friendly solar-powered and should work from dusk to around midnight, best attempted soon after sunset after a sunny day.

The published coordinates should bring you to a paved circular courtyard in a nice little park in Berwick Springs, kid & wheelchair friendly, very easy walk & flat paved path.  Due to the very bright Council-provided halogen light, you do not need any special tools, even a torch is optional.

Look at the top of the structure to find the Beacon - it's Red, Green, Blue and various other colours in-between. The Beacon should be easy to see and immediately obvious, but you might need to look/walk around the inside and outside of the circle to see it.

Stand under the beacon and make the following projection:
38m due North (0 deg)
(Simplest way to do this is to use your GPS or compass to locate North and walk in that direction for about 40m)
The cache is a large sized bison-tube and can be found a short/easy walk away. To make it easier to find, the cache is wrapped in reflective material so just shine your torch around the general area and it should be easy to find.
