Geocache Description:

Public halls, police stations, rail services, community service organisation memberships, banks and even certain maths skills are all reducing, especially in country towns like Trafalgar.


This cache brings you to my personal favourite public hall and challenges your maths skills - here's hoping they haven't reduced like the numbers of so many other things.

The coordinates that have brought you this far are for parking purposes only. 

The Trafalgar Public Hall is owned and managed by a community committee. It has a long history as a venue for dances, cinema, theatre, martial arts, boot camps, art exhibitons, markets and much more.

As a family we have used the hall for 18th, 21st and 50th birthday parties, to celebrate the long-awaited completion of my studies, and for dances with our rock and roll friends. It's so close to our home and hearts that we tend to call it our hall!

To find this cache, you will need to think about various Gippsland towns, and apply some of those mathematical skills. If I remember rightly, I was adament at school that I would never be reduced to using this particular skill - and if it wasn't for geocaching, I would have been correct!

The cache is a magnetic nano, so BYO pen.

You will find it at

S 38 12. Morwell, Leongatha, Meeniyan

E 146 09. Koonwarra, Warragul- 4, Yarram

Coords checked and updated after FTF feedback.

Congratulations to TheGGGs and kmps for joint FTF.

Please be aware that the hall may affect your GPSr readings. The coordinates you will find by solving this puzzle will put you in the immediate vicinity of GZ. You do not need to go into the hall but you will need to search the area very carefully.
