Geocache Description:


This collection of caches has nothing to do with the Church Micro series in the UK. Given that the Australian 2016 census indicates that No Religion and Jedi Knight are the fastest increasing classifications of the optional religion question "What is the person's religion?" it is not surprising that there is surfeit of empty churches that have been repurposed.

Penola Methodist Church was built in 1908.  The wooden building was constructed by Home Missioner Gabb.  The church was closed and sold to IOOF in 1920.  The building was the local RSL from 1942 to 1958.  The Penola Caledonian Society owned the building until 1999.  The building was again sold and refurbished as a resturant.

The history plaque outside the building has a phone number in the bottom right corner, ABCD EFGH. Used these numbers to calculate the final location of the geocache.

S37° 22.CD(E-F) E140° 50.(E-F)HB

Checksum: 17 + 10 = 27
