LOST: Breeds in Elmira-Corning, NY

Hi, I'm Emily Carter. I realized at 7:30 PM last Friday that my folder labeled Breeds was missing from my tote as I walked out of the Arnot Mall parking lot in Elmira-Corning. Inside were notes and photos for a dog-breeds study I’ve been compiling for months, and losing it feels personal and urgent. I retraced steps along the mall sidewalks, checked the coffee shop benches, and questioned a couple of security guards, but the item didn’t surface. I’m holding onto hope that someone who finds it will see this and bring it back to the correct owner; it would mean everything to me.

Lost devices outside Clemens Center, Elmira-Corning

I was leaving a rehearsal at the Clemens Center on Main Street in downtown Elmira-Corning around 7:30 p.m. when a strap snagged and my tablet and a small phone slipped from my bag. The downtown lights glowed, and the scent of food from a nearby stand hung in the air as I realized they were gone. Those devices hold important files for my freelance work, so I’m anxious to recover them. If you found them, please know they’re mine.

lost equipment for various sports near Elmira College

I left a large duffel bag full of sports gear by the Elmira College gym after practice around 3:20 p.m. Sunday, along Main Street near the riverfront. Inside are a basketball, two tennis rackets, a soccer ball, shin guards, and a whistle. The gear is tied to months of practices and a few friendships built on the field, so losing it stings more than I care to admit. If you happened to find it lounging by the path, I’d be grateful to hear that it’s safe.

Lost: Travel Adapters in Elmira-Corning, NY

On Tuesday around 11:45 a.m., I realized my travel adapters were missing after a quick break near Eldridge Park's entrance along the Elmira River Walk. I must have left them on a bench by the little gazebo while I checked my map. They’re small, black, with a red tag that reads Travel Adapters, and one of them bears my initials in pencil. Losing them has been a real nuisance, since I rely on them for work, and I’m hoping they turn up here so I can finish my trip without extra hassles.

Lost postcards in Elmira-Corning

I was wandering through the Elmira-Corning area around 2:30 p.m. on Monday when I realized I had lost a small stack of postcards from a Finger Lakes trip. They're colorful mementos—pictures from Watkins Glen, Ithaca, and the lake districts—meant to go into a scrapbook. They could have fallen from my tote near the Arnot Mall entrance. If found, I would love to have them back so I can finish the album and relive those memories.

Lost USB drives in Elmira-Corning area

On Monday at 3:15 PM, I realized I left three USB drives in a small black case on a bench near Eldridge Park in Elmira. I had stopped there after a quick errand, and the bench overlooked the Chemung River, with a few pigeons fluttering above the walkway. I am frantic about the data on those drives—one holds client files, another the project notes, and the third has a personal research archive. The drives were in a black neoprene sleeve with a blue zipper, and I last touched them while checking a map at the Elmira-Corning Main Street crossing. If you found them, please return them to the site; I am hoping someone picked them up and handed them in.
