Amy was down from Boston on Longboat Key to join a few friends for a few days in the sun and water. The group was playing in the water throwing a football around for a while and then they spotted a school of fish a little way down the beach trapped in a sand pool above the gulf. They wanted to rescue them so they dug a trench thru the sand and helped them return to the gulf. It had been a great day until Amy realized a very special ring that had been passed down to her was missing. Her great grandfather had gifted her great grandmother a gold ring on one of their anniversary’s. Then Amy’s grandfather had passed the ring on to her to keep it close in the family. They all searched but had no luck and then Amy found SRARC ring finders using Google. She contacted Joe Szemer who called Mike Miller who made arrangements for both of them to do a search. They met Amy and got all the particulars then split up to hunt in different areas. They tried the dry and wet sand first but finally had to get into the rough surf. After about 10 minutes Mike got lucky in thigh deep water and up came the ring. Amy was so excited that she gave Mike a big hug and was in disbelief that we had actually fount it. SRARC is very happy we could recover the keepsake items for Amy.
