Description
I lost my red Mapex snare drum yesterday around 3pm after rehearsal at the Janesville Community Theatre on Main Street. It's a 14x5.5 inch snare with a glossy red wrap and chrome hardware; there are a couple of cosmetic scratches and a small dent on the rim near the throw-off. On the bottom hoop there's a sticker that reads 'Sunset Festival 2018'—a memory from our high school band days. I really need it back; it means a lot to me and I use it for gigs around Janesville. If you found it, please reach out.

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.
