Lost sheet music near Decatur Public Library

I was walking out of the Decatur Public Library on East Main Street at around 5:15 PM on Tuesday when I realized my sheet music for my piano recital was missing from my tote. The binder held two pages of markings, plus a few practice notes I had scribbled in the margins. I have practiced these pieces every day for weeks, and missing them has me stressed about rehearsal tomorrow. If anyone found the sheets, please know they are valuable to me and I would really appreciate their return.

Red Yamaha snare drum with green sticker

I lost my red Yamaha snare drum yesterday around 3pm near the Decatur Square, outside the CVS on Church Street. It's a 14x5.5-inch snare with a bright lacquer finish, white Remo heads, and a small dent on the rim from a gig spill. A green star sticker from my high school band is on the shell, and there's a blue dampening rag tucked inside to mute the snare. This drum is sentimental to me—my grandfather gave it to me, and I practice in my garage most nights. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Silver flute with pearl keys found near Decatur Square

I found a silver Yamaha student flute this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Decatur Library on West Trinity Place. The instrument is in good shape, with pearl keys and a tiny dent on the bottom joint. The case has initials 'A.M.' written on the latch and a blue ribbon tied around the handle, which should help identify the owner. It clearly looks like it belongs to someone who plays in the school band or takes lessons, and it feels sentimental rather than just valuable. If this sounds like yours or you know who it might belong to, please get in touch—I'd love to get it back to its owner.

Black Yamaha snare drum with red star sticker

I lost my black Yamaha Stage Custom snare drum, 14x5.5 inches, yesterday around 3pm outside the Little Shop of Stories on Church Street in Decatur. The shell is matte black with a few light scratches and a noticeable dent near the top rim, plus a bright red star sticker on the badge that makes it easy to spot. This drum has been my go-to for every band rehearsal since college, and it carries a lot of sentimental value because it’s the main snare I rely on for gigs. I also have small blue painter’s tape marks along the shell from where I marked tuning adjustments, and the snare wires show a tiny rust spot near the edge. If you found it or know where it is, please reach out — it would mean the world to me.

Black Yamaha violin in hard case with red sticker

I lost my black Yamaha student violin yesterday around 3pm near Decatur Square, outside the cafe on East College Avenue. It’s in a matte-black hard case with a bright red sticker shaped like a musical note on the lid, and there’s a small dent along the lower bout of the violin itself. The bow has a blue thread tied around the grip, and the zipper pulls on the case are a bit bent from travel. This violin means a lot to me; it was a gift from my grandmother and carries a lot of sentimental value. If you found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back—I’m hoping someone left it safe with the Decatur Library desk or by the storefronts on Ponce de Leon.

Silver flute in black case found near Decatur Square

I found a silver flute yesterday around 4pm behind Decatur Coffee Co. on Clairemont Avenue, just past the Decatur Square. It's a Yamaha student model in a black hard case with a blue velvet interior and a dent on the latch. On the lip plate there's a small engraving with the initials 'L.P.' and the case has a sticker that reads 'Music Camp 2018.' There’s also a tiny scratch near the mouth hole. I’d love to get this back to its owner—this flute probably means a lot to someone. If this is yours, tell me a detail I can verify to prove it's yours, like the initials or the year on the sticker.

Found vintage silver harmonica with soft leather case at Oakhurst Park, Decatur.

I found a vintage harmonica while walking my dog at Oakhurst Park in Decatur. It's silver with a few scratches on the surface, and it has a soft leather case that was in the pocket of my jacket when I discovered it. I’d love to return it to its owner as it seems to have been well-loved.
