Description
Hey, I’m Sarah Novak. On Friday around 4:30 p.m., I left a folder of sheet music on a chair outside the Pablo Center on Graham Avenue in downtown Eau Claire after rehearsal. The folder holds a mix of classical pieces, with my name handwritten on the cover and a pencil mark on page three. It’s important to me because one page includes a note my late mentor wrote, and I’ve practiced those notes for weeks. I’m hoping someone who found it left it somewhere safe along Water Street or near the riverfront park, but until then I’m anxious to keep playing.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
