Yesterday around 5:50 PM I noticed my two parrots were gone from their cage in our cottage near the Chautauqua Institution. They mimic speech and respond to my whistle, so their absence leaves the house quiet and a bit empty. I walked the paths along the lake by the Main Gate, calling their names, and checked the benches by the gathering spots where they often perch to watch people. They are not just pets to me; they're part of our daily rhythm, and I miss their bright colors and chattering. If anyone saw them or knows where they might have ended up, please help me bring them home.
This morning at 9:15 a.m., I found a small pouch containing several GPS devices on the ground near the Main Gate of the Chautauqua Institution, by Alumni Hall, along the shore of Chautauqua Lake. The devices look functional and there’s a faded label on the pouch. I kept them safe in a quiet spot and thought maybe a class or group was out losing gear. I didn’t want them to get damaged or stolen, so I brought them here and posted them, hoping the owner will recognize their equipment and claim it soon.
At 6:45 p.m. yesterday, I realized my utensils were missing from the picnic table outside the Chautauqua Town Hall on Park Row, near the lake. The set includes a wooden spoon with a faded floral pattern, a slightly dented fork, and a chipped ceramic mug I use for coffee on cool evenings. They’re small things, but they carry quiet memories of meals with friends and family, and I’d love to have them back where they belong. If you happened to see them around that spot or picked them up by mistake, they’re waiting to be returned.
On Friday at about 6:30 p.m., after the concert at the Chautauqua Institution Amphitheater, I realized my two hats were gone. One is a navy knitted beanie with a small silver star pin, the other a light gray sunhat with a braided chin strap. I retraced along the lakefront path toward the Amphitheater and back through the lawn by the visitor center, but nothing looked familiar. Those hats aren’t just clothes; they feel like a small piece of the day saved for a breezy evening by the lake, when the air smells of pine and smoke from the bonfire. If someone found them, I’d be grateful to know they’re safe and waiting somewhere near the amphitheater.
I’m Emily Carter. I lost my travel visas around 7:30 PM last Friday, right outside the Chautauqua Institution Amphitheater after the sunset service by the lake. They were in a brown leather folder with my name on the cover. I’m supposed to travel soon, and those visas are essential for my trip, so I’m feeling anxious. I retraced the brick paths along the lakefront from the main entrance toward the boat launch, but I didn’t find anything. If you found a folder with a blue sticker and my initials, please keep it safe somewhere near the Amphitheater. I’ll be checking the area again tomorrow morning and am hopeful someone picked them up.
I’m a weekend athlete and coach who misplaced my equipment bag this morning around 7:50 AM at Chautauqua Lake Park, near the basketball courts by the lakefront trail. It had gear for several sports—a couple of balls, some gloves, and a lightweight windbreaker—stuff I rely on for practice and games. I realized it was gone as I pulled into the parking lot and felt that sinking mix of frustration and disappointment. If anyone turned it in or saw it lying around, please drop a note through the site so I can get back on the court.
