Lost ring on beach volleyball court recovered by SRARC.

Lee and Keith were out for a walk along the fence line to Little Manatee State Park close to Wimauma. A bee started to buzz around Lee’s head and she whipped her kerchief out of her pocket to swat it away and then realized that her rings had been stored for safe keeping in the kerchief. She heard to clunks as the ring flew across the fence and hit the brush on the other side. She and Keith climbed over the park fence to search and were able to find one of the rings. Later that night Lee came back with a flashlight hoping to find the reflection of the diamonds on the other ring. As she looked she noticed a reflection but on closer inspection it turned out to be a wolf spiders eyes and after shining the light around she spotted many more of them. About that time a park ranger came along and kindly informed Lee that she was not allowed in the park at that time of day and would need to come back through the official entry during the parks open hours. Almost a year later (the ring was lost last February) Lee found SRARC ring finders and contacted the club. Mike Miller made arrangements with the park ranger and a hunt was arranged for the following week. Mike and Joe Szemer met Lee and a ranger and were taken to the location. In about 5 minutes, Joe said “Hey Mike I got it”.  Both Lee and the ranger were in disbelief but had great big smiles on their faces. Lee gave them both a big hug and was extremely happy. We always love it when our hunt is a success and the lost item is returned.

Ring Lost In Sarasota, Recovered By SRARC

Jackie was helping out at her Mom’s house in Sarasota by removing air plants from the hedges. As she was picking the branches down inside the hedge she felt her ring fall off. She looked around on the ground under the hedge and found it laying there. She put it back on and went back to picking air plants. When she finished she noticed her ring missing again. She searched the ground under all the bushes she had worked on but could not find her ring. After googling for help she found SRARC ring finders and contacted Joe Szemer. Joe contacted Mike and he made arrangements to meet Jackie at her mothers house. After detecting the ground under the bushes and finding only nails and screws, Mike started moving the coil over the tops and down into the bushes. Soon a nice signal sounded and Mike carefully searched the branches and only found a roofing nail that had been setting there for years. Disappointed, Mike continued to search the tops, sides, and down in between the branches of both bushes. Finally he return to the bush that the roofing nail had been found in and searched again. As he passed next to the area where the nail had sounded off earlier another strong signal was detected. A close inspection revealed the elusive ring. There were lots of smiles and hugs as Jackie was reconnected with her ring. It is always a pleasure to see the excitement and smiles when we get to return a lost item.
