Saxophones lost after rehearsal near downtown Tampa.

Last night at 9:15 PM I realized my two saxophones were missing after a rehearsal in the Tampa Bay Area. I’d been at a studio behind the Straz Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Tampa and must have left them in the hallway. They’re a silver alto and a dark tenor, both well used and priceless to me as a musician starting out here in Florida. Losing them felt like losing a part of my identity and future gigs. If anyone found them anywhere near downtown Tampa, I’d really appreciate them turning up at the studio or Straz staff.

Found Pants in Tampa Bay Area

I was strolling through the Bayshore area by International Plaza around 5:45 pm today when I spotted a pair of pants lying on the sidewalk near the bus stop. They’re dark denim with a small red thread on the pocket, and one belt loop showing a lighter stitch. I checked the nearby bus shelter and the plaza information desk but didn’t see anyone looking for them, so I brought them here in case someone is missing them.

Lost Swimsuits near Clearwater Beach

On Sunday at 7:45 p.m., I left our beach chairs at Clearwater Beach near Pier 60 and came back to find my two swimsuits missing from the mesh bag. One is a bright red tankini, the other a blue one-piece with white trim, both tucked in a striped bag. I’d last seen them by a lifeguard stand, just as the sun dipped toward the horizon. The swimsuits aren’t just clothing to me—they belonged to my teenage daughter, a small reminder of summers we shared here. I’m hopeful someone found them and turned them in; if you have them, I’d be grateful to reunite us.

Lost shoes, Tampa Bay Area

On Friday at 7:50 PM, after I left a show at Hyde Park Village, I realized my dress shoes were missing. I had kicked them off by the bike rack near the Armature Works while I tied my shoelaces, and they must have rolled away in the breeze. They are black leather loafers, size 9, with a scratch on the toe and a white scuff on the heel. I'm due for a meeting early Monday and this is stressing me out. If someone found them, please return them to the listing; they'd mean a lot to me.

Lost Power Tools near Westshore, Tampa Bay Area

I’m a freelance carpenter and I lost my power tools after finishing a job on Friday at 6:45 p.m. I had stepped out of the Home Depot on Westshore Boulevard in Tampa, paused to lock the truck, and by the time I turned back they were gone. The case held a blue drill, a yellow level, and a coiled tape measure—little things that mean a lot on a project. Those tools are my livelihood, and I’m sick thinking they might end up somewhere else; I hope they turn up.

Found sheet music in downtown Tampa Bay area.

While packing up after my street performance near the Straz Center, I found a folder of sheet music tucked behind a bench. It was around 2:30 pm yesterday along the Riverwalk in downtown Tampa Bay. The pages are well-used, with a pencil note on the cover and a few smudges from the sun. I kept them safe, hoping the owner would recognize them and reclaim them through the site.
